Hockey Max

Max, September 2008Well Max seems to be a hockey fan – what else would you expect from a Canadian dog? He’s a little nervous around Mike yet, but then, Mike makes me nervous! hah

Here is a picture I took of him around 7:30 tonight – he never stays very long on the beds… maybe too soft after the SPCA kennel? He stays 5 minutes, then gets off and lays down on the carpet.

He’s quite a bit smaller than Buck. I’d say he weighs in the 50 pound range. Buck in his prime was 75ish. Max is a couple inches shorter, and not so thick through the chest, but he has as big a head lol.

Max's Wisdom

Your AuthorToday I had a chance to go for  walk around the park. Mum took me after she got home from work.  I have some shaved legs (oooh la la ) and the wet grass was bothering me so we hot footed it over to the sidewalk. I got to try some turkey.. man that was good. I hope I’m not allergic to it!!

I also got up on the bed, that was fun… It was so fluffy I had to rub my face in it. 🙂 Mum said I was getting all gooey. 🙂 heheh.

When we went for the walk, I was going ahead as far as I could…. mum didn’t like that so i got told to heel and slow down, I did pretty darned good and I got told I was ” a good boy”.  I’m taking things kinda slow.. I’m holding back some because I just am not sure of myself yet..  but my tail has been higher today than it was yesterday… and I’ve bestowed alot of kisses on these two, to show them that I’m really hoping this is going to last!

Saturday Morning

Max Sleeping - first day homeMax had his first night in his new home. I put his bed at the foot of our bed. I called him up on our bed, and he came, but would only sit. Tried to get him to lay down, but he didn’t want to.

He left after a couple minutes. He lay in the hall for a bit then went downstairs.

He likes to lay with his back to the stairs, that’s for sure. I think he slept the night in the family room, where there are two beds for him to choose from.

Anyway – here is a video from YouTube of Carolyn and Rookie – if you can watch this and NOT smile, chuckle or say awwwww – then you’re one tough bastard.

The part where Rookie puts his paw on her hip is so sweet…. Someone sent me this video a long time ago, with the Subject Line: Tell People this is BUCK! lol Buck was that goofy, that’s for sure! He loved to run through your legs like Rookie does at the beginning of the video.
