Max was 6 weeks away from his 14th birthday, when we had to get him put to sleep. He had Spondulosis of the spine, and near the end we had to lift him everywhere. He had no feeling in one back leg, so we had to make the hard decision, to let him go. That was eighteen months ago, but it only feels like yesterday that we brought him home down my jumper, aged 6 and a half weeks.
