Dog of the Month for July 2019 - Max and Mae!

This months coveted Dog of the Month prize actually goes to 2 dogs, Max and Mae.  Well I couldn't give to one without giving to the other!  These 2 gorgeous dogs have been with us since 2015 and we've had them both on the books since they were puppies.  Mae came first and Max was adopted later and it may have been 2016 when Max came on the scene.  He was already 6 months old when his owner brought him home to meet Mae who by that time had pretty much gone through the puppy stage and was a happy go lucky young dog (I bet she didn't know what was going on when Max came to stay!).

Mae is a Border Collie and is very loving. She is happy to accept any dog into the pack and is just a really friendly and confident girl.  When she was a puppy she went through a stage for a couple of months where her favourite thing to do was to undo my shoelaces whilst we were out walking.  She still has a mischievous streak even though now she is older.  I no longer have to double knot my laces though.

Max is a Belgian Shepherd and he's been Mae's little brother ever since he was rescued at age 6 months.  He's a big lump of a dog but is actually very good on the lead and although he can be reactive to male dogs we encounter he is getting better and will continue to improve as he gets older.

Both dogs live together and get on really well.  Mae's in charge though!
