Dear all,

It is with great sadness we are letting you know about the sad passing of our second rescue dog Max, brother of our beloved Jazz, who we lost to cancer last May.

Max and Jazz came to us in 2010 at the age of seven they had a rough start in life Jazz was a very protective big sister, more like a mum, feeling that she had to help him eat his food, play with all the toys and get into everything first so Max was always her shadow.

 Max loved going for journeys in the car and swimming he would disappear into our local lake until he was a dot on the horizon and we would have to call and call him he was also one for disappearing in the undergrowth and you would have to go and hunt him out and he loved playing ball.

He was a daddy’s boy and he would get very excited when he knew it was getting near time for his Dad to get home from work he would bark madly. He was devastated by the loss of his sister we bought him a cuddle monkey it was the first toy he ever bonded with and he slowly came back to us.

Max had just enjoyed a lovely Christmas away and was in his element visiting friends but lately he had been tired and his back legs had started to go akimbo which is what we can only conclude happened Friday his back legs went and he could no longer stand despite a trip to the vet and him trying to rally we knew it was time to say goodbye so on Tuesday we had to take him to the vet for his final journey to Rainbow Bridge to be reunited with Jazz xxx
