Max was 16 years old, but has been with our family for the last 15 years. We affectionately called him, "Grumpy Old Man". While he normally weighed 7 lbs, he was only 4 lbs when we decided it was time to let him go. He was blind, could barely walk, and looked like a skeleton. While he was "grumpy", he would always wag his tail and even sing for us (a cute high pitched howl). But, during the last few weeks of his life, we did not see him wag his tail once. He no longer found joy in life.
Goodbye Max, we LOVE you!
Max with his best friend Abbey, who died in December 2006
Abbey - May 21, 1996 to December 22, 2006
Due to Max's depression over the loss of Abbey, we got Kitara to keep him company.
She was born on November 30, 2006, but joined our family on January 26, 2007.
