With the support of many generous individuals, Max was able to have his urgently needed operation and has returned to the children and family who love him.

The donations, help from Outreach to Pets in Need, and discount by Dr. Lazarus at Rippowam Animal Hospital, enabled Max's procedure, medications, and follow-up to be covered by $2,900 from this Gofundme. This was a miraculous outcome, accomplished through the kindness of many, and has enabled three young children to keep their best friend.

This is a kind and deserving family, and a mother working hard to help her wonderful children. Those who helped Max would like to ensure that the family has everything they need to live in dignity and safety. About $2,900 was withdrawn from this Gofundme for Max (the counter does not reset), so any donations above that amount will go towards helping Elsa and her children, and will be deeply appreciated.

Thank you to all for saving Max and helping his loving family.
