How a Dog Changed My Life — Maximus’ Rescue Story
I feel as if most people go through a period of life without pets.

When I was 14 all but 1 cat had passed on and our house was left very quiet and empty. “We are done with animals” My parents would constantly say whenever I would bring up the topic. I couldn’t blame them, growing up animal care always fell on my parents and after having years of animals and kids I could understand their need for peace. However I was far from done with animals, but I knew I had to be logical about what animal I could care for and afford.
