Hello!
This is Mara Thacker and on Tuesday October 9, 2007 I adopted Max, then
called Monty, from your shelter. Just a month later I cannot imagine my life
without him. We love to take long walks together and play with his plush
hippo toy. Every morning starts with a cuddle and I can't think of a better
way to start the day. I remember on his bio page it said he wasn't much of a
lapdog and that has changed. He loves to sit on my lap, especially when I am
on the computer or working on homework. He also loves to give lots of
kisses. We are working on obedience training, which is going so-so. He has
that willful terrier personality, but hot dog treats really help. We are
also working on leash manners. I know it's hard to walk nicely when there
are all those squirrels just waiting to be caught! I have included a few
pictures of him. The first one is Max being "King of Castle" and reclining
on "his" bed. Then there is Max enjoying a fresh Kong.
Finally, we have a picture of us having a cuddle. I don't know if you can
use them all (because I am in one, and let's face it, it's all about Max),
but anyway, I just wanted to thank you guys for taking such good care of him
until I could get him. He is my best friend and my family and I am so
grateful to have him in my life.
Thanks for all your hard work!
