  1. I remember when you were thinking/talking about adding Tally to your family; all the encouragement and support given by your friends here on GT - the same friends posting here now. I am so sorry that the adventure with Tally has had so to soon. She was such a sweet, funny little girl. I wish we could have read many, many more adventures of her life with all of you. She was such a sweetie, and she will be missed... :f_pink :f_pink

  2. My Max did this last summer. We couldn't get it stopped bleeding (because I didn't have any stypic powder), which is all they used to stop it and then loosely wrapped it with gauze bandaid and put vet wrap around it. Left it like that for a couple of days, and then undressed it and it was fine! It has grown back now, looks the same as his other nails - no other issues...

  3. Wow! :clap:confetti:clap Thank you very much for making that work. We spent about 2 hours trying. Max says "Uuuuuurrrr- ooooooooooooooooooooowowowowowo" Thank you thank you thank you. I'll have to have another stap at that myself. I'm obviously not a computer guru, but Max didnt help much, so there.

    And Hi to Waterloo Maximum. Hes a very refined looking fellow. Those are indeed very similar markings and his spots are the same shade. I wonder if they are related. Maxwell was "TSRs Redrock" born 7-29-02. I think there were 8 in his litter. He came from Birmingham Alabama though. Where is Maximum from? Im curious though, is it just that his whole head has gone grey from age? Good Boy! Woof!

    We went to the dog park again today, but it was 26 degrees and 26 mph wind, so we didnt stay long. Bbbbrrrrrr!

    Thank you again for posting for us. Max and Jerry

     

    Max is Tomax Smart Play, out of Flying Bookie and Char Begone, born

    April 24, 1998 And yes, his head has gone all white from age! The first pic is shortly after we got him in 2002; the second pic was form late last year. It's funny, his head has gone all white, but he is getting more red spots in his white areas!

     

    One more shot of his all-white head, just because!

  4. Hello from Waterloo Ontario - from one Maxwell to another! My Max used to have a diamond shaped kissie spot on the top of his head, just like your does!

    but sadly over the years, I've kissed all away!

    Look forward to seeing more pics of your very handsome Max!

  5. What is it with dogs love, love, loving chocolate?? Max will snarf back anything chocolate over anything else - if there is a plate of chocolate out and a plate meatballs or other meat sort of snack, he'll head right for the chocolate!

     

    Fortunately, I've never had to make him throw up - he's never gotten more than a taste - but I would for sure, especially if it was dark chocolate at all

  6. She was a good friend to the greyhounds. Max still wears one of her collars... :( I remember her email when she knew she couldn't take care of her beloved greys any longer, so heartbreaking.

     

    Rest in peace Maria - I know you have had mnay wonderful greys greet you.

  7. We've had Max for almost 8 years. He is a pretty calm dog, easy going, not anxious. And his nose has dripped continuously for those 8 years. We call him Sir Snotsalot :blush . There is no ebb or flow in the drip; it is steady, consistent. Our hardwood floors our polka dotted in Max drippies. There is nothing wrong - vet checks regularly, but he just has nothing else wrong with him. He's just a big drip! :P

     

    Your boy's faucet may slow down as he settles in - or he may always be a drip, just like Max! :lol

  8. I am so sorry and shocked to read this.Life can be so unfair - how heartbreaking for all of you; but I am so glad you were able to make the journey to be with him, so you could all be together for his final journey. He always knew your love

  9. Oh Suzanne - I am just so, so sorry to hear of Piper's passing. Your story of how she chose *you* made my heart smile; so clearly you and she were meant to be! Your sweet stripey girl brought smiles to many of us on GT, what a delight she must have been in your life. I know the two of you must have fought so hard together; I'm so sorry she had to leave so soon. I wish a peaceful healing for you and your girls :f_pink :f_pink

  10. Oh yes, now that winter is here, Max has gone into official hibernation mode! We have been home most of the past two weeks, with the Christmas break. We go for a walk in the morning, he sleeps until lunch and goes out for potty; it might involve a bit of play if not to cold - just a few snow zoomies then back in. Snooze time for the afternoon, potty around 5, dinner then a bit of play with stuffies and general romping, back for a nap until 8:30, another potty - this one is pretty much always accompanied with some play time in the yard - and then more napping until last potty around 11. He'll be 12 in April, and I guess he is actually still pretty active... :blush In the spring and fall, he is a lot more active, summer heat pretty much results in the same activity level as winter!
