Hello Every Buddy! 

A few days ago mom posted a foto of me standin' on our treadmill, some of you asked if I actually use it...

...I really do! 

We did a post 'bout me usin' da treadmill a few years ago, click here to looks at it!

Max doesn't know how to walk on da treadmill, 

mom has been lazy and hasn't teached him yet but hopefully soon him will starts his lessons! 

Umm...do I has to? 

Woofs and Licks,

Maggie Mae and Max

PeeS Mom never lets me walk on it unless her is down in da basement wif me.  

Max Had A Barkday!

Hello Every Buddy!

When Max became my brudder, mom and dad picked March 18th as his barkday, (we don't know da actual date Max wuz born).  So yesterday, we  celebrated what we think is his 3rd barkday but mom wuz too busy wif udder stuffs unable to helps me wif my bloggie so we couldn't celebrates it wif all of you, 

so we is celebratin' today! 

Help yourself to come cake! 

Max, you is da bestest brudder EVER and we LUVS you! 

Woofs and Licks,

Maggie Mae 

We Are Back With Good News!

Hello Everybody!

Mom took Max to da V-E-T yesterday to get his leg checked out.  Him was limpin' on Sunday so her was very worried dat Dr. B would say dat he would need to have some surgery on it, but guess what? 

After much poking, prodding and manipulating Max's leg, Dr. B said dat his knee feels good so NO SURGERY is needed!

Max will always need to takes his glucosamine chondrotin pills, but dat is okie dokie. 

 Of course I, Nurse Maggie Mae, will watch him very carefully cuz if him starts to favor his leg for an extended period of time we will has to take him back to da V-E-T fur x-rays, but for now Max can FINALLY be a dog and do dog stuff wif me!

I was a good boy at da V-E-T

C'mon Max!  

You can play wif me now! 

You don't has to be on da leash anymore while you is in da yard either.... so let's go!

We can run...

 and play...

... and just have fun together! 

 Yay for Max! 

Woofs and Licks,

Maggie Mae and Max

Thinking of Max

Hello Everybody!

Mom and me was wondering if all of you could keep Max in your thoughts today.

Just like our furiend Bailey, Max has been havin' some trouble wif one of his rear legs, only fur him it is his left one. Mom took Max to da V-E-T a couple of weeks ago and got some 

Antee-Inflammatory medicines to give to him and da V-E-T told her to limit our playtime too...bummer. 

Mom and dad thought that he was gettin' better, but now he is back to limpin' again.

(Mom says please excuse da messiness on da table her was doin' some computer work fur da church)

This mornin' mom is taken Max back to da V-E-T fur some x-rays on his hips.  We will let you know what da x-rays tell da V-E-T as soon as we can. 

I sure hopes him is gonna be OK

Woofs and Licks,

Maggie Mae

Da Story of Max Part II

Happy Wednesday Everybody!

Wasn't Max's first post good yesterday? 

I can't wait to hear Part II of da story...

Ooh wait, I all ready knows it, hehehehehe

OK I won't make you wait any longer so

Max, da blog is yours again, 

puleeze continue...

Thank you Maggie and hello again, it is me Max, one of your newest Blogville buddies.

I am so happy all of you came back to hear more of da Story of Me!

I will now pick up da story where we left off....

My first meet and greet wif Maggie Mae and mom is 'bout to happen....

OoH boy, here dey come!

I sure hopes dey like me.

How do I look?

Hello dere Maggie Mae, very nice to meet you.

(I was very polite to her)

After our introduction and a few hi how are you sniffs...

 ... I started to tell Maggie Mae 'bouts my life before today...

Well Maggie Mae, here is my story:

(as told to mom by the rescue peoples S and J)

Just before I came to stay here wif S and J (my rescue peoples), I did belong to a man and a lady and I lived wif dem in a house in a city not too far from here. 

Dere was little kids and a kitteh livin' dere too and I gots along wif dem really well. 

But even though I lived wif a family I was not treated like a family member.  Da big people in da house, especially da mean lady, did not take good care of me.

One day, da man got kicked out of da house left to live somewhere else so da mean lady who lived dere put me outside and would not let me back in da house, but I was still hangin' around da neighborhood cuz I didn't know where else to go. 

After a while of bein' on my own, someone called S and J and asked dem to come and take me away from dere.  
S and J came to get me and talked to da mean lady who told dem to take me cuz her did not want me anymore.

So that is what they did and dat is how I got to be here.

Maggie Mae listened to all of my story...

...and den her rushed over to her mom to tell my story to her!

When our meet and greet was over, Maggie Mae came up to me to say good bye.

Her told me dat I would make a great brudder AND her mom had fallen in love wif me and wants to be my mom too!

 Guess what else?

I was gonna come to dere house Friday night wif S and J to meets her dad! 

(From mom: and to see if Maggie Mae and Max got along at our house) 

If all went well on Friday night, her mom and dad will sign some papers so dat I can stay wif all of dem as a foster brudder.

OoH Maggie Mae, I will see you Friday! 

Let your dad know dat I will be on my best behavior Friday night so him will want me to stay wif all of you.

I think I did good today.  
Now I can't wait fur Friday!

Well, as you can probably figure out, Friday night went well, so dad and mom signed da foster papers so I could start livin' dere.  

 After the weekend was over 8.7 seconds of living wif dem, mom called S and J and said 

"He is our boy and we want to sign the adoption papers ASAP"!  

Later that week, mom took me to da V-E-T to have me checked out (all was fine) and microchipped. 

I had my you-know-what surgery on Thursday and that night I was adopted and my name was changed to Max.

(me at home recovering from surgery)

So ends da Story of Max and how I got here. 

Within 3 weeks of mom seeing my handsome face on petfinder.com,  I has my new furever home wif a great sister and a mom and dad who love me very much. 

From now on I will be well fed, warm, safe and happy!

THANK YOU to da first rescue fur ignorin' my mom and dad THANK YOU mean lady fur lettin' S and J take me from you...

...and THANK YOU fur listening to my story!

Your Buddy,

Max

Da Story of Max Part I

Hello Everybody! 

I sure want to thank all of you fur makin' my 400th post and surprise celebration so much fun.  
Your Blogville welcome fur my new brudder Max was pawsome and we all thank you fur dat!

Now we want to begin to tell you da story of how Max became my brudder, and since it is Max's story I am gonna let's him do all da talkin'! 

Hey Max, is you ready to start tellin' your story? 

Yes I am Maggie!
OK new furiends, here is Part I of da story of me

Mom has wanted a new baby brudder fur Maggie Mae to exhaust her so she won't be such a pain plays wif fur a long time, but dad was not so sure. Mom knew her could get him to say yes but it was not gonna be easy and it might take a while. 

 One day in September, dad called mom up and said "You have to go to this website and take a look at this dog, I want us to try and adopt him"! Mom was very happy dad finally wanted to get another dog so mom went to the website to take a look, him was a cute dog fur sure,  but it wasn't me! 

Anyhoo... mom and dad filled out an application and e-mailed it to da rescue site and then waited fur a response.....

Except fur da automated e-mail response after submission of da application, after 5 weeks, 4 follow up e-mail inquiries AND a message left on dere voice mail, dey heard NOTHIN' from dem. 

(From mom : Of course animal rescue volunteers are very busy and the dedicated service they provide for unwanted animals is appreciated and respected but c'mon, no response at all after 5 weeks?) 

Mom and dad was VERY annoyed wif da rescue peoples so dey finally gave up on dem, wouldn't you? 

(We won't tell you who da rescue is BUT we will tell you dat dey is from da NORTHEASTERN part of da country and da BOXER is da type of dogs dat dey RESCUE.)

Dat night (Sunday), mom was kinda sad cuz of what happened or didn't happen wif da other dog so her started surfin' da internets and went to PetFinder.com.  

Her thought oh why not, and typed in some informations and
look who her found lookin' at her!

Dis is my best puleeze adopt me face...

 ...Mom thought I look sad and skinny in deese fotos

After readin'  'bouts me on my petfinder.com page mom jumped off of da couch and woke dad up cuz him was all ready sleepin' and snorin' in his chair showed my fotos to dad and said "He is the one I want"! 

Dad was not so sure him wanted to try again fur another dog, but mom ignored him WAS sure so her sent an email to da rescue peoples and within 2 hours her had a response and an application form to fill out. 

 By Monday morning, mom had worn dad down convinced dad dat I was da one to get and dey sent in da application. 

Well, dat afternoon mom gots a phone call from da adoption coordinator at the rescue and dey talked fur a while and before you know it a meet and greet was scheduled fur da next day!

to be continued...

Well, dat's da end of Part I of my story. In Part II, I will tell you 'bouts my first meet and greet wif Maggie Mae and mom!

Hey Max, 

you did a great job wif your first post. 

I hopes you come back to hear more of Max's story!

Woofs and Licks,

Maggie Mae and Max
