Bless them both! Max has a weight advantage but I suspect Micha has a brain cell advantage!

I had the privilage of meeting the gorgeous and scrummy Max today




What a lovely boy with the same spacial awareness as our Diesel - can't go round you, has to go through you perfect for improving your stability and reaction time

There's the big dollop of a dog, he is funny though

Max went off to his home yesterday, it is so quite here without him and I am missing him like crazy but hopefully this is just what he needs and I wish him a very happy life and pray he stays in touch

So good for Max be great for him to get the fuss and love he needs!
Be interesting to see who you get to fill his big old crate!!!

Big hugs Sharon, but hopefully this is the best for him, I know he was like your shadow and I though you may end up with him, although I also knew he needed someone with more time. Hopefully he is in his forever home and you will get lots of photos xx

Max updates

Hi sharron ,

Brief update on max. He travelled well and came straight into the garden for fun and games until he zonked out. Have had no fear issues around house and he certainly isnt fearful of sofas ! He has tried them all out and his personal favorite seems to be mine right in front of tv! Do you have any non treat related tricks to move the oaf ? As I type he is laying down waiting for me to get up and free the sofa :)

Will give you an update tomorrow

Hi sharron,

Well max first full day almost over. He was very good last night and slept in the hall with honey.

He was up at 6 having a treat on the patio. He then sat in the van watching me clear out the garage, which he enjoyed. ( he likes to know what's going on )
Then into the back garden for a hose down shampoo and brush, all went well.

Out came the petrol mower and the lawn was mowed. He was good with mower and at one point we had a max shape on the lawn as I had to mow round him!

30 mins of training followed which went well. This seemed a good time to unleash his nemesis , the bike!, he was jumpy at first , and had a woof as I cycled round the lawn but after 10 mins was eating ham from me as I was on bike, so some progress.

We have had no problems with sofas, he knows there out of bounds unless invited. The funniest thing now being that he sits on them as a human would , bum first with feet on the floor.

The highlight of the day for max was undoubtedly dinner time, roast with the trimmings which he waited very patiently for. He seems to learn the boundaries from honey.at the moment he's zonked out on floor by my hoping that farting soon becomes an Olympic event.




More tomorrow

Steven : )

Well done Maxi

Great reading that Max has settled so well already ! Way to go Max !!!

Sorry to report that Max is back with us

There were 3 teenage boys in the home and one and Max did not really take to each other

He is a bit shell shocked at the moment but we hope in time we do find the right home for Max

So sorry Max it did not work out for you

Max, I'm gutted for you

Ya plonker xxx

He may of needed time to adjust and settle, its hard when you have kids. Hopefuly the next one will be his forever home xx

Aww what a shame for the big fella give him a big hug from us

steve and charlie

Took Max out walking this weekend, I chickened out and just did laps of the field, Graeme thought that was too boring and took him down the bridle path all was well until 2 land rovers came down the track, they slowed to a crawl and Max laid down and then the rodeo startedcars and Max were fine I just wish I had a camera.

shouldnt laugh really but Max + cars can be quite entertaining

Didnt walk him while I was there and he was very barky when in his crate but when out was a big softie and got a nice cuddle!

He certainly is big and brave when he is in his crate but let him out and he instantly turns into a massive puppy and snuggle monster (although I have to admit the best bit was when jan went outside with him and he turned into bambi and nearly had her over!!! And just to be clear I would NOT have laughed.................................... Much!!!!!!)

Max is now in a home, I miss him so much but am really happy for him

Try you best to be brave Max and try also to be good, love you always and am here if ever you need me big lad

Good Luck Max

big hugs Sharon, I know how much you loved the big lump and I'm sure he will always have a huge soft spot for Aunty Sharon!
You have done such a great job for him
xx

What lovely news Max sure is lovely. Be a good boy

Great news!
