Fur-baby Max

I'm surprised this wasn't my first post. Maillardville Manor is about house and home, but to me there is no home without a furry friend or two. Max is our almost 5lb yorkshire terrier. He's 8 years old but doesn't look a day over 8 weeks.
He came from a local rescue organization. As a result of neglect and abuse before he was rescued he is missing the majority of his teeth. Poor little guy. So if you see his picture and inches of tongue are hanging out of his mouth, it's because he has no teeth to hold it in!

I really would recommend searching for pets from rescue organizations. Even if you are searching for a very specific breed there is probably a rescue group out there with just the doggy you've been looking for. Try Petfinder, it allows you to pick your pets breed, age, gender and then search local organizations for available matches.
We've had Max with us for the last 5 years and can't believe how lucky we were to find him.
As I type this he's asleep on a pillow beside me, keeping me company, waiting for Lee to come home.
