maxine was a good dog no matter what anyone else has to say about it we had her for three years and i wouldn't trade them for anything. she was so affectionate and loving with me and my husband and was such a good pal to our other dog roxy. she tried so hard while she was here and had come such a long way from the unhousebroken very aggressive 4 year old we took in. i was always so proud of her progress. she was so content to just sit in her chair and look out her window at the cars going by and she loved to watch nascar all curled up on the couch with us every sunday. nothing on earth was more exciting to her than a car ride and i took her every time i could. when she was good she was the best! it was never hard to forget about her troubled past, her agressive outbursts when she wasn't that dog it was like she never had been and never could be. although it was a return to her agressive behaivior, like a disease that had only been in remission, that led her to the end of her ride here on earth, i will always remember a happy max with a swishy tail and the best doggie kisses ever. her memory will haunt me until the day i join her in heaven, no matter how hard i know we tried to save her it breaks my heart that i couldn't, the demons that plagued her were stronger than i and stronger than her, which says a lot, but she is free of them now riding around heaven in a car made completely of windows.
