That was one heck of a video tribute. Wish we had met Max, because we love to swim too! We can see the love!

I agree with Charon. This is definitely one of your best Comet. Great job!

Oh how I wish I would have gotten to know Max. He was one of those extra special pups! You can just tell. The dog is most always committed but us humans often fall short. In this family, everybody brought their "A" game. The result, Maximut, an amazing and beautiful boy indeed.

Thanks for sharing. All the photos were fantastic. But my favorite one was of Max and mom (look into my eyes) while on the boat together.  Great photo Dad….very special.

My friend and I sat at work this morning and watched the video and cried.  How amazing his life was.  He had great people, a great family.  The pictures are amazing.  I liked the one with his head on his dad's shoulder in the car.  A true connection.

So sorry for your loss.

Those pictures truly captured what an amazing pup Max was and what a special part of the family he was to you. 

 

Well done, Comet.

I'd like to point out that the music wasn't my choice, so that shout out definitely goes out to Max' family!  See, I didn't do much at all!

     Although my wife already posted our thanks, I feel I should do the same.  Hard as it was for both of us to watch because his loss is still on our minds, I thought the video was wonderful.  It perfectly captured Max’s personality along with how we felt about him, and from reading the comments here, it’s obvious that Comet succeeded in creating something that made everyone else see that as well.  Out of all the dogs we ever had, he was the one who most perfectly met the ideal of what a dog should be, and that video shows it.  Thnak you so much.

Thank you Maxidad for your kind words.  But thank you for letting me make such a moving tribute for everyone to be able to share Max.  Max really touched me since we got to spend some time together, if only in pictures of love.  I felt him smiling on me, too.
