GAIL'S HOUSE - by Max
Max here. I am just fine, thank you! I want to tell you about a place that means a lot to me. I’ve been going to Gail’s House since I was an 8-week-old pup. From the minute I met her, I knew she was special. She speaks to me in a very high-pitched voice....

CHESS KING ON THE HOT DOG BOAT - by Max

DAYLIGHT ENSLAVING TIME - by Max
Max here. I am just fine, thank you! Now, I'm not a dog who complains all the time, but it happened again this year. Sometime in early November Don stopped feeding us at the proper time. We three good dogs would get up at the regular breakfast time and wait patiently for breakfast. And...
