“Oh, what would the world be like without dogs?” (my grandma).
My baby Maximus came into my life almost 7 years ago. I have always loved dogs, and we had many amazing ones as I grew up on my family farm.
I had never before shared my home with a house dog, however. The first few seconds of officially owning one was not the picturesque image of a playful puppy running into my arms and giving me a gentle kiss as I smiled and hugged him. No, Max did not run; he barrelled into my beautiful new home at 8 weeks old and promptly peed on the white carpet! Then he chased my two cats who had bravely come over to investigate this strange creature before proceeding to go number two in a corner, again on my white carpet!
Despite our slightly rough start, Max soon became an important and vital part of my life. In our years together, he has been my constant partner from our many walks to our adventures to snuggling time, my guardian, and my best friend.
