Oh, yeah, and Max

So, um, this is Max.




Max is a 7 year old basset hound we rescued about 3 weeks ago. Max had spent the last year+ of his life living on a tie-out in Southern Indiana. His family had lost their home to foreclosure and he was bounced around a bit.

Aaron saw Max on Petfinder, after the nice gal at Red Sky Rescue had convinced Max's caretakers to relinquish him if she could find an adopter. No family pet should live outside on a chain. He sent me the link, and I told him not to come home without the dog.

Max is perfectly healthy, except for the extra 15lbs he's carrying around (who isn't really?). He's already lost 5 lbs and he's got much more energy. He's just the sweetest guy.

We're still not sure whether we're keeping him, although we've fallen quite in love with fat old man. We're introducing him and Joe verrrry slowly to set them up for success.

Such a name for a fat, sweet, sad, old dog.
