Max’s Journey: From Stray to Strong
Meet Max, our brave survivor. Back in 2020, Max wandered the streets near a hardware store in Davao City—bald, weak, and alone. His fur had fallen out from disease, and every day was a struggle to find food and shelter.
Then came the day everything changed. Our team rescued Max, gave him the care he desperately needed, and showed him what love truly means. With time, medicine, and lots of cuddles, his fur grew back—soft, shiny, and full of life.
Today, Max is almost unrecognizable: a healthy, happy dog who loves belly rubs and long walks. From a stray in the streets to a symbol of hope, Max reminds us that every rescued dog deserves a second chance at life.
