Every year, countless older dogs end up in rescue through no fault of their own. Max, a sweet senior dog, is one such case.
After his devoted owner fell seriously ill, Max was entrusted to the care of The Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home, where he now urgently needs support to enjoy the comfort and care he deserves in his golden years.
Max is estimated to be over 10 years old and has already captured the hearts of everyone he meets. While his spirit is full of love and sweetness, his body is showing signs of age. Our veterinary team has confirmed that he requires a large dental procedure, blood tests, and ongoing pain management to ease stiffness and discomfort.
“Max is an old soul with the gentlest heart! He finds pure joy in the simplest things and loves nothing more than stretching out in the sun and being present in the moment. He’s won the hearts of everyone he’s met, and we feel lucky to be part of his journey,” said Sarah Rochford, Animal Care Assistant at The Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home.
