Animal Control Officer Maxwell (or ACO Max for short) is the secondary antagonist of the 2009 Nickelodeon movie Hotel for Dogs.

He was portrayed by Eric Edelstein.

Biography[]

Max works at the New York City's animal pound, but as some times went by, he and his partner, Jake hate dogs and everyone that owns them as well. Max and Jake do everything in their power to capture and lock up every single dog in New York City.

Upon learning that the dogs are in the abandoned hotel, he and Jake use the opportunity to take full control of the capture with the other animal control officers and their boss, Herb Dooley; even when Bruce and his sister Andi try to hide it.

After all the dogs have been captured, Max and Jake threaten to kill them all with the animal euthanasia. However Bruce and Andi's dog, Friday, escapes and returns to Mark, Heather and Dave, who head over to Bruce and Andi who formulate a plan to free all the dogs from the pound.

While Heather distracts Jake, Bruce and Andi manage to break into the pound and release the dogs and Mark tackles and pins Max to the ground, allowing Dave, Andi, Bruce, Heather, Friday and the others dogs to escape.

When Max, Jake and all other pound workers reach the hotel, Max orders Officer Mike and the other police officers to arrest the kids until Max sees Friday and captures him. Bruce and Andi try to stop Max only for the police officers to interfere and Max mocks them about Friday. Just as Max, Jake and all other pound workers attempt to capture the dogs once again, Bernie Wilkins, the kid's social worker, appears and tells everyone about how Bruce and Andi managed to create a family of dogs at this abandoned hotel. After Wilkins introduces the dogs in this hotel and delivers a heartfelt speech to the crowds about their past owners' story, the police, reporters and the citizens are moved at this and they start to explore the hotel. Exasperated, Max and Jake leave the hotel along the other pound workers. Mark scares off Max in the process.

It is unknown what happens to him and Jake afterwards, although it can be implied that they're both arrested for their crimes and charged with animal cruelty and murder, and the animal pound gets shut down for good.
