Maximus was the best ball player ever!

Nickname: Max, Maxie, Pitiful Bulldog

Maximus you were wonderful to me. You know I loved you. I Miss our long walks. As soon as you saw me pick up my walking shoes you were jumping everywhere. Remember I always had to say "now sit Maxie" so I can get your collar on. You bounded out the door first no matter how many times I told you that was rude! Oh how I long to walk you again. You always accepted whatever little dog I brought home as my foster dog. How many were there? I've lost count. But you were accepting of all of them. Willing to share me with them.
Keep catching those balls. There's no cars at the Rainbow Bridge so you can run and play with no fear. Wait for me. I'll be looking for you.

Just thinking of you Maximus and wishing we could take a long walk together and maybe play ball.

Buster is at the Rainbow Bridge now too, Maxie. Please take care of him.

I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too.

I think of you in silence and often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame.

Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in his keeping but I have you in my heart.
