It’s always heartbreaking when dogs are surrendered to a shelter, suddenly upended from the only home they’ve ever known and left in an unfamiliar environment.
That was the case for a dog named Max, who struggled in the shelter after losing his home of 8 years. But when a familiar face from his past heard his story, it changed everything…
Max arrived at the Pennsylvania SPCA 8 years ago and was quickly adopted out, but sadly he recently ended up right back where he started. The shelter wrote that due to “unforeseen circumstances,” Max was surrendered by his longtime owners.
After losing the only home he’s known for the past 8 years, Max was understandably sad and confused and struggled in the new surroundings.
“Max was terrified here. He was heartbroken. He wouldn’t even eat,” the Pennsylvania SPCA wrote on Facebook.
