Max taught me how to care for another being, he is the one and only reason I began to love animals which are now one of the most important parts of my life.
He taught me selflessness, he has needs to and they are not any less important than mine.
He taught me how to sleep in a twin bed with a 65 pound dog sprawled out beside me and enjoy it more than sleeping alone.
He taught me that there is no use in staying mad at somebody when they don't know what they heck they did but would really like to make it better by sleeping on your lap (which they are too big for) or licking your face to make you laugh.
He taught me what passion was, a passion for dogs is something I will have until the day I die.
He taught me what unconditional love is, he had it for me and I for him.
Unfortunately he has also taught me that you can be lonely in a room full of people, and what REAL pain is. He made me have a worst day of my life, a day I will never forget no matter how hard I try. I miss my sweet baby boy, I wish he had had time to teach me the rest he had to offer.
