Goodbye my faithful friend...

Max our 12 year old OES was put down on December 9, 2008. Max was a gift to my wife on her birthday and was her first dog. Little did she know that a full coat OES is a LITTLE bit more work than any other dog.

She loved and spoiled him for his entire life. He was never a problem and loved everybody. He never left the property except for his bi monthly grooming! He did not like to go for a walk, he was happy to watch the world go by from inside the house looking out of the dining room window.

The last few months he seemed to be in pain (walking)-but he still wagged his tail and barked for more cookies. It was very difficult to make the decision to put him down but I could tell he was in pain and our love for our dog allowed us to feel relieved when his time here was up.

Our house is quiet and I miss my reading/drinking companion but I know we had a long 12 years with MAX and we are grateful for that.
