    In February 2021, Max was presented with the PDSA Order of Merit, also known as the animals’ OBE, for his outstanding contribution to society.

    Now his statue, which has been designed and made by local sculptor Kirsty Armstrong, is a permanent tribute to Keswick’s most famous dog.

    Max went on to make public appearances, charity walks and school visits, meeting and helping more than 10,000 people and raising around £300,000 for charities, including PDSA.

    He was even invited to Kensington Palace and met the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
