Hi Auntie Denise:)

May I call you that??  Mummy said you played a special part in getting Max to her and that he actually lived with you before coming to Mummy?  I was sleeping in the sunshine when you wrote and Mummy (I've decided to call her that now) said I should be well mannered and write you back <G>  and say thank you for taking the time to write to me.  So, thank you!!

Can I ask you something?  Did Max always grumble?  He's so funny...he grumbles, Mummy laughs, he grumbles some more, she laughs harder...sometimes I think he does it cause he likes it when she laughs....did he always do that?

Mummy tells me you're planning on getting a couple of the girls from the rescue.  Is that true?  There were some sweet girls there at Kennewick, who I know could really use a good home with caring parents.  With us all split up now and all over the state it might be harder to find them but I know they're there.

Wow, so much has happened to me in such a short period of time!  I just can't believe it.  I was sitting in my crate last night before going to sleep and I just couldn't believe that there was fresh food and water for me and it was all mine...and I was warm and cozy and watching something called a tv.  Mummy said I had very very little...actually nothing...and I never knew that....I thought all doggies were treated the same...now I'm finding out that it's not true.

I'm still skittish around my mummy but she's being very patient with me...I'm just trying to figure out where I can poo and pee....second bedroom...wall to wall lino and puppy pads...and mummy cleans it down every day...I'm just so surprised by how clean she keeps everything but she says she has to..it's so we're healthy :)...and she says when I am stronger and am ready to go on a leash she'll take me outside and we'll start exploring the world....and I'll walk on grass as a normal part of my life...she said Lillie will help at that point by showing me how to walk to a leash and they'll both be by my side so I don't get scared. 

I've never seen a computer before let alone typed on one...Mum says I'm a natural...I think she really likes me....oh and mummy says I'll probably be saying woof woof eh?? in no time :)

Anyway, thank you for writing to me and hopefully when Mummy brings me down for a visit, we can meet.  Anyway please write me too and let me know how things are going with your search for your girls....love to hear :)

Hugs and nighty night
