'John & Maximus'
About Maximus
Maximus, my 11 year old Welsh Corgi.
When did you lose Maximus?
March 18th, 2011 around 11:30 pm.

John and Maximus's Story so far
My spouse and I were united with Max when he was a puppy 11 years ago. He has been a part of the family all this time. I am so grief stricken and feel hopeless.
Max was a fun dog that could keep up with our larger dogs on hikes or throwing a ball, racing in the back yard. He would growl when I tugged on his ear, it was a loving growl.
