If dogs are Man's Best Friend then how
do so many of us end up in animal shelters across the country? My name is Max
and if I am Man’s Best Friend what happened? I have been a family pet for my
whole life, growing up with the children in the family. I did not understand
what I did to deserve being taken away from my home and family. Later I discovered that I did not do
anything. The children I grew up with are now teenagers and have started to
misbehave so their parents used me as leverage like they would their child’s
Xbox. Since I am no longer in my home I guess that the children did not care
for me as much as the parents thought they did. Still how could the parents
just drop me off at this place after me being a part of their life for such a
long time. I feel like Man has
treated me like a piece of technology. I am supposed to be Man’s Best friend,
not just an inanimate object that can be thrown out when it starts to wear out
or when you get bored of it.

After spending the summer and fall in a
cage at the shelter, I was relocated to a foster home through the shelter and DunRoamin.
I am enjoying my life in the foster home, but wishing that I could find a more permanent
situation. If you want to know more
about me contact the Carleton County Animal Shelter at 277-1104
or DunRoamin Stray-Rescue at 328-3380.
I have Max now, he is my forever dog. I would like to be able to contact his former foster parents.
