11th-hour save
Max
Max was an 11th-hour save from being euthanized. He arrived underweight, with the look of defeat in his eyes. Today he's living life to the fullest with his new family.
Emergency pull
Oakley
Oakley was pulled from an emergency euthanasia list with only hours to live. He was petrified, with no ball or toy drive. His new mom — a dog trainer and vet tech — slowly introduced him to her pack and built his confidence. Ten months later, he's learned to play and to trust.

His family saw him on Facebook and donated — weeks later they drove 90 minutes to bring him home to Upstate New York.
