Here's what the humans have to say about me:
UPDATED BIO 12/28/2010: Maxx is a beautiful PERFECT little 7 year old 5.9 lb little boy who is being fostered in Largo, FL. He had this to say:
"OK, so here I am, the holidays are almost over, and I'm still in my foster home...... getting awfully comfortable I might add! I have the best routine in the world!! After breakfast, foster mom sits on the couch and drinks her coffee and reads the paper and I get to sit in her lap the whole time. I just love sitting in laps. I would do it all day long if you let me. I am actually up to 5.9 lbs and still quiet unless someone else in the house starts barking, then I will join in, or when FM and FD return from their errands and I have to let them know I am so very glad to see them!
I love my sweaters in this cold weather, and I like to get under the covers when it's cold. I'm learning not to do anything in the house and SO love having foster brothers and sisters. I'm still a little shy around new people. I would rather be with someone I know really well, but the worst I will do is shake a little. I'm not aggressive at all. FM said I am the BEST, so there!
UPDATED BIO 12/19/2010: Maxx is a cutie patootie 7 year old 5.5 lb handsome little fella who is being fostered in Largo, FL.
"Maxx here, what a busy week I've had!! I am now ready to go home. FM said to tell you I am a hunka hunka burning love. I was so scared and skinny when I got here, but my ribs don't show anymore. Even tho I am 7 years old, you would think I am closer to 2. I love having another dog in the house and having someone home so I can sit in your lap and give you kisses. Think on the bright side of being 7 also, I'm not going to go around chewing everything up in the house, like shoes and papers, or furniture or floorboards. I am really good about NOT chewing things up.
I am doing so good on my housebreaking and only bark when everyone else in the house is barking, or when FM or FD come home. I sure would like to be in my special place over the holidays or at least by the New Year, so kisses to you and don't forget to fill out an application. I'm sure FM would love to tell you what a good boy I am."
INITIAL BIO 12/9/2010: Maxx is an ADORABLE 7 year old 5 lb little guy who is being fostered in Largo, FL
"Maxx here, I'm the new guy in the neighborhood, and you have SO much to learn about me! I know I am 7 years old, I weigh 5 lbs, but really FM thinks I could safely gain a lb to be a healthier weight. I am kind of a timid little guy and shake when I'm skeered. I need a lot to be done, like a nooter, a dental and all my shots. It could have been a lot easier if that had already been done, but you're just going to have to wait a little while to get me. I lost my mom, then I lost my dad, and then my uncle couldn't take me with him when he moved. That brings me to you, and you are going to be my forever home, right???
FM said she will get back to you when she knows more about me, but if you could contribute to my vetting costs that would really help a WHOLE lot!!! See you all later, MAXX, over and out!!"
