GRREAT's Forever Friends
Max
Max came to our family in an unusual way. As I conducted a GRREAT Intake Interview with his heart-broken owner things suddenly veered off-script when I agreed to temporarily foster Max for 6 months while his owner tried to resolve an immigration issue. Max was 15 months old at the time and I fell in love with him over the phone. He fit into our family so perfectly right from the start and immediately we worried how we would ever part with him. In the end, his owner was not able to return and we happily agreed to adopt Max.
No amount of time is ever enough with our wonderful pups, but we are so grateful for the 11 and 1/2 beautiful years we shared with Max. He was the sweetest, softest boy and he brought smiles, comfort, joy and love not only to our family and friends, but to so many others through his many hundreds of pet therapy visits with People Animals Love (PAL). He always seemed to know exactly when someone needed a little extra love – laying his head on their laps or reaching out to gently place his paw on them. He was so loved and will be so missed by us all.

Rest in peace and love sweet Max. Thank you for all the wonderful memories that will stay with us always.
