Max

Here at Chez Glo we have a friendly staff made up of the day manager, a
housekeeper and her assistant, the gate attendant, a gardener and,
finally, a dog named Max. Although Max is probably no purebred, he's a
good looking dog and probably still young in his years. The manager
didn't know exactly how old Max is, but he did say they've had him for
about 2 years now. Every morning when I walk out of the guest house and
into the courtyard, Max starts wagging his tail and running in circles.
The gate attendant usually calls Max over and tells him to sit, which
more often than not results in Max jumping up on his hind legs begging
to be pet. When I get back from the office, the gardener usually lets us
in the gate and Max is always lounging in the fading sunlight and, as
soon as he sees my coworker and I, rolls on his back and puts his paws
up in the air, both his tail and his tongue wagging, welcoming us home.
