Do you remember MAXDOG from South Africa?
He was friends with every furry and human in the world!
Maxdog wanted to make a difference in this big world of ours, and he did!
He made a difference in my life. He showed us how to live life to the fullest, and not give up just because the doctor says you are sick. Maxdog's mom, Caryl Moll created this very beautiful story about how the little tiny Maxdog puppy tugged at her heart, and became her heartdog. He helped her rise above her depressions.
I was honored to have won a copy of this treasured book. I held the book close to my heart, and sometimes I layed my head on the cover, absorbing every word. As my mommy and me read the pages, we found the story was more than just a book about Max-. It was also about how the blogging community in the whole world circled around Max and his mom Caryl, with a circle of love when Max was sick.
Together we held paws- you and me. The Power of the Paws ignited a tidal wave of caring from across the oceans and moutains and deserts for Max and Maxmom.
Me and my mommy did not want this book to end. We savored every page.
We smiled, we laughed, we cried.
And we took the words into our heart to Live every second to the fullest.
We also learned that there is hope for many who have struggles and depressions.
Maxdog left his pawprints all over our hearts. They will stay forever and ever.
We thank Maxmom Caryl, for writing this beautiful, and honest love story.
If you read this book- you will never forget it. |

Dearest Tweedles,
Thank you so much for putting up this special and beautiful post. Maxmom says that she REALLY appreciates it. You are a wonderful cyber-friend and we are so happy that the book touched you in the same way as Max touched Mom's life. You, however, touch our lives daily...and we are so grateful to the universe for this. The world of doggie-bloggers is simply amazing, and the power of the paw is just that...POWERFUL! Friendship is one of the greatest gifts we can give. Thank you, thank you, thank you ..for yours!

Tweedles, that sounds like such a wonderful book. I enjoyed reading about how you were liking the book, and absorbing some of it by osmosis! I used to study like that sometimes - not quite as effective as actually reading. :)
Hugs to all of you!
I think Maxdog shows all of us how lucky we are to be part of this awesome community!

Tweedles, that sounds pawsome. We can really relate, as my mom person suffers from depressions. I have helped her a lot.
I'm going to buy her this book for her birthday.

hey Tweedles,
I'm sold! That was a super post and you did Maxdog and Maxmom proud with your very candid review of their book. I am happy that the book touched your heart and it is amazing that even as an Angel, Maxdog and his mom are helping furries and people around the World. What a great legacy.
And my human K and I are always in awe by the Power of the Paws.
Hope you and your moms had a fun 4th of July!

Hey Tweedles, Jet here.
Gosh, I can see Mom has a few tears in her eyes... what a beautiful tribute to Max, his Mom and their book.
THIS IS A TEST!
That's so sweet. Friends from different places can have such an effect on us. I am glad Max has touched you in a different way as he would have touched his other book readers.
You say the sweetest things to your friends.
Huggies and Cheese,

Tweedles, Mommy is just starting to read this to me. We have had all kinds of power problems, but I hope things get back to normal. Thank you for your report, I can't wait to finish it and then I can spread the word of this wonderful story also. I hope you had a nice holiday. Mine was ok, but noisy and stormy and no power.

You were so fortunate to win a copy of this book. We imagine it's really good.
that story sounds pawmazing and right up my alley - heading to the blog and fb page first! Thanks so much for the recommendation!
What a good book review Tweeds. Now I have two books I want to read...yours and this one. What an honor to have a book reviewed by you! xoxooxxoox
I'm going to tell to my sister to read this book! Thank you so much.
Have a nice sunday.
Woof, woof,

I'm so glad the blogging community helped Max and his family. Facebook always leaves me feeling like a loser. But staying in touch with blogging friends is the opposite. And the cover art is so beautiful on Max's book. I'll have to check out the link.
Mom is going to try to order this book so we can learn and enjoy the message also!
Dear Tweedles, What a wonderful review. When MaxMom learned about K's illness, she sent me a copy but suggested that I might wait until later to read it all because of what I'm going through now. I've read a few chapters, and I agree with your review SO whole-heartedly. What a journey Max's life was.
Tweedles, your post gave our Mom goosebumps. She liked it and what it said. BTW we were near Molalla twice this past week. Going to southern OR and then coming back. Gotta say we thought of you a lot when we went past the turnoff. Hope you are having a good week!

Tweedles this book review was wonderful, it sounds like such a great book! I will have to check it out for sure! Love and Licks from Frank xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
