To The Max

Foster Update:  Since I’ve been fostering Chaz, I have been able to evaluate two totally different dogs, and I think having Chaz has helped me understand Max even more.  Did you ever go to school with one of those kids that got straight As, was always “the good kid” that never got in trouble, the [...]
