Max's letter home

Dear Daddy Kaan & Mama Tia-

So much has happened since I left home a couple weeks ago, but will try to catch you up.

I have a new name. They call me "Max". I will let you know my fancy registered name when we all figure it out.

I am really having a good time in my new home. Found out I'm stuck with 2 cats. I hold my own and they have learned who is in charge. I love my new authority.

My favorite playmate is a girl named Ellie who is four years old We have fun 3 days week. We play tug of war, tag, ball, and just have fun. I always take a good nap after she has gone home but when I wake up, I always cry because she's gone.

The food is good here! Have not missed one single meal since I left home. In fact, I was at the doctor for an 8 week check up and in two weeks have jumped from 9.5 lbs to a whoppin' 18.3 lbs. Wow! I think I doubled my body weight in a mere 14 days.

I have had just a few upsets. The first evening, I had to go to the bathroom, but didn't know where go, so picked Perry's tennis shoe. He smelled it but couldn't find it!! Carol thought it was so funny that she had to take a picture of it. I also have chewed a heavy duty orange extension cord in half. Glad it was unplugged, oh, and I may have chewed a USB cable in two. It seems like everybody gets snippy when I lay by computer wires.

Check out my pictures that are attached. I move so fast with so much to do that it is hard to get a good pose out of me.

Most of all, just want you both to know that I am loved very much.

xxoo
-Max

meet Max


We have done it! We are in the dog ownership world now. He's a little 7 week old German Shephard. Headed to KC today, although it ended up being just north of Archie on Hwy 71. We got to meet Max's parents, and then fell in love with Max and paid for the little guy, got his registration papers and headed home.
After seeing his dad come down the drive way to "welcome" us, we learned that we have not only bought a dog, but a security system as well when he grows up to look like Dad.

Seems like a smart dog too. Went into the bedroom apparently looking for a place to have a good doggie poop and didn't get any on the floor! It all went in Perry's old tennis shoe. Good dog....good dog. haha

Clyde the cat is NOT happy. He will get over it though.

We are kind of bad about renaming a dog after we look at it for a day or two so he may not be Max next week.
