My Maxie
Since I have been unwell for some time I am trying to make sure my Prince Maxie is well looked after after I have gone.
I am paying a donation to Dog's Trust and Dog's Trust is also mentioned in my will, however I don't believe Maxie will get the care I want him to get. When I got a lady from another organisation some months ago (she visited me) - she said I wasn't "sick" enough for him to be looked after.
I am actually looking for someone to look after him if I ever have to go into hospital urgently and need him looked after.
I was lucky last time when a neighbour took care of him a night and a day but I know he wouldn't want to do it again.
I just want to have a strong back-up for him and for me to happy with this. Any advice to make this happen would be make me happy. And no, no family or siblings would want to take him on. Thanks for any advice.
I just worry that when I become ill I don't have a backup.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I also suggest the Cinnamon Trust. My daughter walked a chihauha for an elderly lady for some time and I took over when daughter went to uni. We became friends and the lady got as much out of it as the dog. The trust will find a foster home for short term or permanent home and also walkers when the owner isn't able to.
I have offered before and am offering again - I am more than happy to take Maxie if you need to go into hospital in an emergency. You just put my details on a card in your purse.
I can post my email address again if you want to get in touch.
