GREETINGS FROM SOUTH AFRICA!!!
on this rainy Autumn Day in
As I have said on my other blog,
The autumn colours of our neighbourhood are exquisite!...
TAMMY-GIRL thinks we are all far too slow...
But then there is a lot to look at!...
Today the rain has settled in and the temperatures have dropped.
Rainy Autumn days bring a sense of solemnity to the inhabitants of our buzzing city and its no different in our household.
These are days to curl up, cuddle up and wait for the warmer weather. A steamy beverage encased in chilly fingers is the perfect anecdote. The dogs cuddle up too - always at my feet and always together...

I wanted to also say that as Max's time to leave us draws closer
(and again,...I DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT WILL BE!)
I will be wrapping up this blog and moving MAXMOM's activities and those of
TAMMY-GIRL and KING TOFFEE
to my personal blog,
I would really love to maintain the friendships I've made amongst my doggie-blogging friends.
In the new blog, I will be posting both about the dogs and other things that interest me. This blog, 'THE ADVENTURES OF MAXDOG' will then remain as a legacy to Max after he has left us.
Please come and visit me at my new blog (and follow me perhaps?)
I leave you with a picture of the Golden duo
(apologies to my readers who have already seen it!)
Sending all my warm, uplifting and healing wishes to the doggies and kitties who are struggling and especially to my dear friends in France...
(Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time!)
With love,

Thanks so much for the update!
I completely understand that you want to keep this blog as Max's legacy--that's a great idea.
But I know that even if there will be no more posts on this blog, I'll never stop following it. And I hope all the others won't either.
Afterall, just because Max leaves and there won't be any more posts on his blog doesn't mean he has to lose his followers.
This blog means so much to me....and we're all on the journey with you even if we're across the world.
Thanks for the update. Anyone (like me) who has traveled the path that you're on now knows what a tough but love-filled time this must be for you. I think of you regularly, sending you thoughts of strength and love.
Thank you for your little tour max. It was not to slow for us..BOL
Benny & Lily
I will right this second make sure my mom puts your other blog on our bloggie reading list. We both luvs how you write and we luvs learning about the things you find interesting. But thank you for updating us on Max and for taking us on your stroll with you. It was Most Beautiful (and so was that sweet picture of Max and Tammy-girl).
Wiggles & Wags,
mayzie
I continue to pray for you. Sending great big hugs from Richmond, Va.
Love, andrea and the Perdue Zoo!
Thanks for the update! I'm going to check out MaxMom's blog now. It's great to know this blog will always be here when I need a dose of Max's wisdom!
And seriously, is there nothing better than a warm pupper to cuddle with on a cold day...or a hot day...well any day?
I think you are a very thoughtful and wise MaxMom to keep this blog as a legacy to wonderful Max. I am enjoying reading your new blog! Those colors are just gorgeous, but love the three piles of fur cuddling up to each other as I imagine it raining outdoors! The coup de grace is the last photo - priceless - absolutely wonderful! Great captcha!
Big Hugs xoxoxo
Sammie and Ozzie too
Of course we will come visit you on your new blog - we already have it bookmarked! We wish you all another wonderful day!
Sam
All of you are in our thoughts
and prayers always!!
Cheers

I'm so glad you are treasuring the beauty around you and spending time cuddling and appreciating the time together. It's never a given how much more any of us have, that's why your awareness and treasuring of each moment is so special.
My heart cries for all our friends in pain..

Thank you for the occassional updates, very much appreciated. I often think of you and how Max is doing.
How come we don't hear much about Tommy?
I'm going to start following your personal blog now. Not sure why I haven't been all along.
I'm glad you're going to leave this blog as a legacy to Max. It'll be nice to be able to come back from time to time whenever I need my Max fix.
Max's legacy is already in place. This blog will be part of it. All our blogs are Max adorned, we're all thinking of him and his family... Thank you for the update. The last photo is too precious

Dear Maxdog and Maxmom,
You've fought long and hard, and sometimes a good rest is needed. Your look at the autumn trees was so beautiful; a leisurely stroll was perfect to take in the colors and enjoy all that nature has to offer.
The time to rest may be coming closer, and we'll never forget our journey with you. God bless, gentle hugs, and huge kisses to all of you, and thank you for sharing such a wonderful life with us!
Even if you don't have a new post, I like to come and see Max everyday!
Take care
Kisses and hugs
Lorenza
Dear Maxmom
Thank you for allowing us to stroll with you through this Autumn time. A time of falling leaves, when the earth will slumber for a moment. And then the brightest stars will shine in the universe.
Thank you for leaving this blog as a treasure to us- for us to come to for comfort. A place where we can come to reflect and feel the presence of Max forever. A place to sit- a place to listen. A place to hope, and a place just to be quiet and be thankful for what Max has taught us.
We love your new blog too- thank you for creating it -so that we all can grow together.
love

We think abowt Maxdog and yoo all a lot so love to get updates. Sending purrs and love.
It's great to see an update from you so keep them coming (whenever you feel up to it)!! The autumn colors are lovely... Autumn is my favourit-est season of all because of the colors.. something about it is so calm and yet melancholic (??)..
Please know that you are never far from our thoughts... sending you love and doggie kisses.
Hi Max and Mom....what a lovely post...your autumn colors are beautiful. We love the picture of Max and Tammy head to head....
Give Max and all the pups a hug from us.

My dear friend, I am way behind reading my blogs and I just read yours. I am not surprised by this news and I was also wondering what you were going to do. I think it would be a fitting tribute to Max. He is such a special friend to everyone in the blogging community. Even though you are so far away I feel like we are friends. Is that strange? I don't think so. I keep Max and you in my prayers.
Your fall colors are beautiful and we are enjoying our spring time warmth in New England!
xxoo
Deborah
