Glad to hear your weekend is going well, BenMax. Maddox knows he is now loved and I am sure going to be such a fighter to get past these horrid parasites.
That is wonderful of you 14+

I think the money you made at the garage sale is great ! for a garage sale , it's a success !
your comment about telling the lady why you were having this sale made me think .... people should know why you're having those sales. Maybe a poster with Maddox's picture , and a link to the rescue website , and explanation as to where the money is going ..... maybe that would get people to give more , not only buy but also give maybe they wouldn't ask for bargain and just pay the asking price. All your hard work has not been in vain , look at the money you have found for Maddox's care , I think it's awesome mf !!! |

Maddox had a great weekend. Full of beans but I am trying to keep him as quiet as possible. The walks are very very short and he loves to go on little excursions outside. He does not understand why he cannot but I have provided him with lots of toys to keep him busy.
On Wednesday we have another appointment to follow up. Things are looking good for Maddox though we are not out of the woods just yet. Thank you for your good wishes. It is so heartwarming to know that people really do care. |

I'm guessing that if he's doing this well so far then he's got an excellent chance of getting through this.

Wonderful wonderful news
Just so that you all know, Maddox had another blood test last week. The great news is that Maddox has made it!!! His organs are in perfect working order, his lungs are clear and his heart is doing exceptionally well. He started his heart worm prevention as of last night!
Maddox must however stay as quiet as possible for the next few months. I truly believe he knows that he is safe and we are doing everything possible to help him recover. His leg remains still in need of repair which will be addressed in a few months. Maddox is a new dog. He has a new leash on life and he continues to thrive. I cannot tell you how much his character has changed. He has become confident, playful (though we need to keep this in check), protective and walking him now is a little more challenging (which we are going to work on gradually). He is what a GSD should be now. Full of life, exhuberance and playfulness. He is just not the same dog at all - he now has LIFE. |
