My age...12-15
My city...charleston
I am the best ambassador for the Palmetto Rescue Brew Beer because...I use to be Max. But now I am Maxwell. About 12 years ago my parents at the time brought me to a place where a vet poked me my body with a needle. After that I could not move my back legs, and I kept peeing and pooping anywhere. Like I had no control. Those parents came looked at me, shook their heads and left. I never saw them again.
The nice veterinarian brought me a wheelchair. My front legs got strong like I was "buff" . Over 8 months went by and I still was at this shelter place. Some humans would see me and laugh. It hurt my feelings.
I was getting really sad. I thought I would never have a real family again.
One human kept come to see me and smile. Then one day she came in, and she(Kim) took me for a ride in her car. Kim said she was my new Mommy.
I had a new family. I felt very important and I had new dog sisters
I finally felt loved and Kim helped me work on my walking. I got to get in the bathtub and swim, my legs got rubbed a lot. I got to visit the house with old humans in wheelchairs. One day a human called "priest" was there.He put water (holy?) on me and prayed over me. My mom also lets me sip her beer. Yummy! have been wobbly walking for past years.
