Max's Journey

Hello all. I know it’s been a while since I’ve been online…life seems to have gotten in the way of blogging! Max is doing well.  I have discovered that I need to push him a little or he’s not going to do too much without a push.  So, no more free rides to the trees or fire […]

Hi everyone!  Just wanted to give a quick update on Max so I can go read other blogs and forums.  Max is doing pretty well over all.  He’s still flopping around like a fish at night trying to find the spot, but I’m hopeful this won’t last too much longer.  He’s getting around pretty well…WHEN […]
