![]() ![]() The next day, Max has decided to displace Duke and become the object of Katie's affections once more. Although Max is immediately disgusted by Duke's callous wet licking and selfish sleeping habits, and his attempts to warn her of Duke's selfishness in the bathroom are in vain when Katie is unable to understand his barking. One day, she comes home with another dog, a Newfoundland she adopted named Duke who has made Max's life turn worse. He spends his days waiting in front of the door for Katie to return and playing with his friends Mel and Buddy. Max lives a normal canine life with his owner Katie in a small apartment in New York. It's not until the film's climax that Max finally realizes Gidget's feelings for him and he finally returns the crush and they start their relationship (to Pops' disgust). He only viewed Gidget as something close to an actual friend. Max seems to also be rather oblivious to the world outside of Katie's, this is demonstrated by him being completely and ignorantly blowing off Gidget's attempts to seduce him. Max does care about Duke and tries to save him from drowning to his death (even risking himself meeting the same fate). However, he and Duke eventually made up from this after enduring many dangerous and even life-threatening situations that almost result in both the dogs dying. This shows that Max actually has a power hungry and controlling side (ultimately igniting the events of the film). Knowing that he can't gain dominance over Duke (he had stolen Max's bed and dominated Katie's apartment when she's away), and after consulting Chloe about Duke's abuse, Max becomes very controlling of Duke and even arrogantly abusive of him. When Duke found out about Max's secret detest towards him, they seem to enter a feud. He is shown to be very unwelcoming to Duke when Katie adopted him and even hostile. However, he is so loyal to her that he selfishly wants to keep her to himself. He is a very lovable, playful, and a very loyal dog towards Katie. He also has brown irises and rather clean teeth. ![]() He has a large black nose, a pudgy body, and small skinny legs. Max is a small Jack Russell Terrier with white and brown fur similar to a beagle's coat. ![]()
