just got a letter from one of my dogs

Max was a puppy born at the shelter, his litter had a hard time at first, came down with parvo - it was touch and go for awhile.

anyway, Max was adopted by a great family in the country and he just sent me this letter:

Hi Ms. Elizebeth;
I wanted to send you a note to let you know how I have been doing. First I have to thank you for the great family you let me go with ( I get treats for almost anything even just looking cute). I have my very own blue teddy bear that I sleep with every night ( not because I am afraid or anything). There is also another puppy named Bear that sleeps with me (because I think he is afraid). There are two other girl dogs. Avalanche (Ava) is a Great Pyrenees and boy is she big and bossy too. If she think there is danger or I might get hurt she herds me onto the deck in my yard until she lays back down. Did I tell you that she was bossy? Well she is! Then there is Chloe she is a Chihuahua and so funny, she growls and that makes me laugh so much that I have to lick her all over and make her growl more. She stays pretty wet because of me. We all get to go for walks in the woods next to my new house several times a week. Wow there is so much to smell over there that our walks take forever but I love it. My kid that plays with me alot has a big comfortable bed and I love love love to sleep with her, but with all of us dogs trying to get in bed with her there isn't a whole lot of room so now we take turns sleeping with her. When I first get into the bed I have to take a flying leap onto my kid. That is so much fun. My family tells me that Bear and I are getting our very own pool. We aren't allowed to get in the big peoples pool (too much fur I guess). Well I am going to go play for now and I will try to write again soon. My people are sending you some pictures this coming week and they told me to tell you that they couldn't have a more perfect addition to their family than me and Bear. I love and will never forget how generous you were fostering me until I had my forever home. Thank again. Max
