Max the Miracle Dog dies

Max the Miracle Dog

Max the Miracle Dog has died, his owner has confirmed.

Last week it was confirmed that springer spaniel Max, 14, had been diagnosed with a brain tumour.

The popular dog supported more than 10,000 people through meet-and-greets, charity walks, appearances and school visits in his fundraising efforts.

Max first rose to fame after turning owner Kerry Irving’s life around after a traffic collision left him with chronic pain and unable to walk.

A year later they both summited Ben Nevis overcoming physical and mental obstacles along the way.

Last year Max was awarded an animal OBE for giving support and comfort to thousands of people worldwide as a virtual therapy dog.

The PDSA Order of Merit was awarded to the dog who helped raise more than £370,000 for charities and supported people through the COVID-19 pandemic with its social media updates.

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.

“Every day gave us memories and every step with you beside us was a privilege. When you see the orange glow of a sunrise or a sunset, think of Max and he’ll be there. Our hero, a true legend, the world’s most loved dog.

“We’d like to say a huge thank you to the team at Frame, Swift and Partners for going the extra mile, with two staff giving up their free time to help Max on his final journey showing the compassion, love and dignity he rightly deserved. It was perfect.”

‘The perfect send-off’ – Read Kerry’s words and see Max’s life in pictures here.
