[Maddie-Rudy-Mom]

Max lived to be 17 years old. He had a very healthy life. The last year he was blind, but got around the house fine. Max was my first dog, always had dogs with the family, when I got out on my own I got Max. His organs where giving out on him, so I had to put him to sleep. I had him cremated and I told my nephew that when I die that I want to be cremated and to look in my night stand and get all my furbabies and put them in there with me. I didn't want them to be just thrown in the trash. Boy did I get off the subject. Max stayed playfull till he went blind. He was a very special boy.
