Peggy said that Max is a rescue that they met at the North Shore Animal League when he was a puppy.

"He was an abused dog and his tail may look cute with the curl at the end but it was actually broken in two different places when we got him," Peggy said.

Now, Max's favorite thing is to play with bagels.

"As soon as he gets one, he runs into the yard with it. When he is done playing with it, he buries them in my flowerbeds," Peggy said. "Sometimes this can be a problem for Max since Rocky the squirrel steals them from him."

A screenshot of Max's Facebook page, some of his photos, Rocky the squirrel and the flowerbeds are in the gallery above.
