Thirteen years ago today, Feb. 7, 1993, I brought Max home to join Rudy. Max belonged to one of my friends, and I had known him since he was a puppy. I used to babysit Max when they went on vacation. Their daughter developed severe asthma and they needed to get rid of all their pets. My initial plan was for me to foster Max until another home could be found. Needless to say, that plan went out the window fairly quickly, and 13 years later, Max is still here.
In another 20 days, Max will have his 17th birthday, so February is quite the month for our most senior of weiners.
Let me be the first to wish Max and the rest of the C's a Happy Gotcha Day! He is such a sweet little man, we sure can understand how he became a permanent member of the family.
Adding my congratulations for Max's "gotcha day" and best wishes to the rest of the Cohens!
Happy gotcha day Max and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
