Max’s Journey
Max came to Lanta Animal Welfare in January 2024 after being found by a local resident who noticed him hiding under a restaurant deck. He was severely underweight, had several untreated wounds, and was extremely fearful of humans.
Our veterinary team immediately began treatment for his physical injuries, which included:
- Multiple infected wounds
- Severe malnutrition
- Parasitic infections
- A broken tail that had healed improperly
Max’s Personality
After months of rehabilitation and gentle care, Max has blossomed into a completely different dog. He now:
- Greets every visitor with a wagging tail
- Loves playing with other dogs in our play area
- Enjoys swimming in shallow water
- Is incredibly gentle with children
- Has mastered several basic commands
