Introducing Max

Hi, my name is Max, and my mom said I could borrow her blog to tell you guys about myself.

Here are some basics facts about me, I am from Kentucky, I am 9 months old, and I am super excited to have a family to call my own. Now you know the basics about me. You might be wondering how I went from Kentucky to Minnesota.

I was living in a shelter in Kentucky and I really didn’t like it, it was crowded and noisy and I was really unhappy. In fact I would run away every chance I could get up to 5 miles away, and someone would find me and bring me back.

So when someone mentioned that a group of us could be headed to Minnesota to see if we could find a home, I raised my paw and said I was in. I really just wanted a family that I could love.

When I got to Minnesota, I meet up with a gentleman that had some other doggos and I thought that this was going to be my new home. But I just stayed there a couple of days and then the nice man said I was going to meet my forever family later that day. I took a power nap and I was ready for the next step in my adventure.

I met my mom and she said it was love at first sight, I agreed. But my mom had a huge surprise for me, I got to my forever home and there was another doggo and a kitty and even fish!

I met my sister Lily, and really it took a while for her to warm up to me, now we are best buds! I have been working really hard to gain the trust of Tuna, she doesn’t hiss at my nearly as much as she did at first and I am learning to give her space when she asks for it. Really she is kinda hard to read at times and I have gotten my nosed bopped more than once. Tuna has a really solid 1-2 punch.

I get to go on walks with Lily and explore my neighborhood. Lily and I play lot. My mom is teaching me to sit, shake paws and she keeps trying to get me to lay down but I seriously don’t like that.

My mom says I am a little extra, because I sniff loudly, in fact my mom kept looking for a helicopter the first night we went walking, I was sniffing so much and so hard she said it sounded like a helicopter! I surprised my mom one morning when I howled back at the sirens I was hearing, I also howl at the horrible song that the ice cream truck plays (I am way better than that truck.) I love to bark and when I sigh I deflate my whole body.

I am looking forward to meeting you and hanging out with you guys, and maybe my mom will let me steal her blog again sometime.
