Max, the Dog of the Day
Name: Max
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male Breed: Dog
Home: Melbourne, Australia
 
   Max is my favorite dog in the whole world. We got him when he was four months old, and he had been living in a flat all his life, so now he is very energetic. But a year and a half later, I was diagnosed with cancer in my leg. I had chemo and was very sick, but every time Max saw me, he calmed down and came up to cuddle me, without going anywhere near my legs. Then I had a big operation to remove the cancer and had a metal frame on my leg. Max was even more careful around me, as if he could sense that I was sick and had a sore leg. Once when I was in hospital with my mum, he even went off his food because he missed us so much. He is so cute that everyone who sees him loves him. Now that I am better he is energetic and playful with me again. He is the best dog I've ever met and always will be an important part of my life. This photo is of him in my wheelchair, which he loves getting free rides in!
