Max is my 9 year old female Miniature Schnauzer. I have been her proud owner since she was 9 weeks old . About a year ago, she became gravely ill with an AIHA (autoimmune disease) She was put on steroids as well as about 8 other medications and her prognosis was guarded, But Max is a fighter and she kept fighting. As of July 4th, she is medication free and healthy! She is my loyal and dedicated companion and I love her with all my heart. Her strength and love inspires me every day. I call her my brave soldier and she is all that and more. Miniature Schnauzer owners are the luckiest people in the World! To my brave Max - may our story bring hope to dog owners out there fighting AIHA - it’s a battle, but there are winners!,keep fighting, keep praying and keep hoping. Max is a light shining for all of you ! Follow her courageous light towards recovery and wellness.
