Dear friends,
I want to introduce you to my amazing friend Max A Pooch, the recycling dog on a mission.
Bad luck to worse luck: At just six months old the black Labrador retriever became a throwaway dog and ended up in an animal control facility, scheduled to die and have his remains dumped in a landfill.
Worse luck to good luck: Black Labrador retriever got recycled (rescued) by Orphans of the Storm Animal Shelter of Riverwoods, IL.
Good luck to great luck: Keith Sanderson, writer and animal advocate, adopts the throwaway/recycled dog and teaches him a game much bigger than fetch. They now walk the streets of their village looking for trash left along walkways and in parks. Max retrieves it and returns to Sanderson with the trash for recycling. Max himself, has become very capable of putting the trash into garbage receptacles!

Now, through his unique skills he draws attention to the plight of millions of homeless animals.
Love dogs and hate litter? Max A Pooch needs our help to get to the top of the charts as the Emerging Hero Dog in the 2012 Hero Dog Awards. The American Humane Association, creator of the the Hero Dog Awards states the awards ‘were created in 2010 to celebrate the powerful relationships between dogs and people, to serve as a catalyst to advance society’s understanding of the human-animal bond.’
The dog is on a mission: Max A Pooch the throwaway dog asks, ‘How great can a nation be that throws away and kills millions of dogs, cats and other pets each year with no more remorse than if they are inanimate pieces of litter?’
If you agree with him, please bookmark and vote daily for Max A Pooch every day through June 30, 2012. This exposure will greatly enhance his efforts to bring attention to the millions of pets thrown away each year as if they were pieces of litter.
Will you help us help Max?
We are all in this together.
Your friend,
Fisher
