Hundreds of people pay tribute to Max the Miracle Dog

Hundreds of people donned orange and gathered in Keswick to pay tribute to Max the Miracle Dog.

Max the springer spaniel gained an international following thanks to his adventures captured on social media by his owner Kerry Irving.

The popular dog supported more than 10,000 people through meet-and-greets, charity walks, appearances and school visits in his fundraising efforts. He was awarded the animal equivalent of an OBE and raised more than £370,000 for charities and supported people through the COVID-19 pandemic.

A statue of Max was erected in Hope Park.

It was confirmed at the beginning of April that he had been diagnosed with a brain tumour and on April 6, Kerry revealed that the 14-year-old had been put to sleep.

A statement posted on the Max Out in the Lake District Facebook page said: “‘Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day’.

“Our beautiful Max fell asleep in Manesty Woods today with Paddy and Harry, his two adoring brothers overseeing his onward journey. The sun shone, the sound of the lake, the birdsong, the breeze in the trees and the scent of his favourite woodland walk comforting him.

“This small dog with the waggy tail and hugest of hearts, gave love and hope to thousands of people worldwide. Max’s legacy and story will continue to grow and inspire for many years to come.”

The memorial walk was organised from Keswick Rugby Club to Calfclose Bay, one of Max’s favourite routes.

Max Out In The Lakes also published this tribute video for people unable to attend the walk:
