As I was editing this video myself tonight, I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. To see him in his new home like that at the end is just a thing of sheer beauty. Nobody deserves it more than the big, soft, gentle giant that is Maximus.

I follow Maximus & he's so loved by his family... literally joined at the hip as he's everywhere they are. His story has gone from horrific to ecstasy & these are the endings we love. You truly deserve it handsome Maximus 💙

Simply amazing. Sometimes I forget just how bad off the dogs were. Thank you for posting the before and after.

Wonderful to see - so deserved!

@houston-dog-guy.bsky.social · 26d

And let’s hope that the people that did this to him and allowed this to happen get absolutely EVERYTHING they deserve and then some…

"Aggressive and dangerous"...that only happens when a dog is mistreated & uses that behaviour to protect itself. Dogs aren't born "aggressive and dangerous"...cruel humans turn them into agressive & dangerous dogs. If they're surrounded by love, understanding and care, they're wonderful creatures.

You are saving the world one dog at a time.

Jack and Hope · 27d

He is absolutely "big, gentle angel". I am so happy that he found home, that he is loved. I cannot understand the level of cruelty imposed on this beautiful boy. But he is living his best life now.

SpriteXL · 27d

They make the best companions. He’s very handsome, I hope he knows nothing but kindness and a long and happy life.

Marie G 💜OT⁷ · 27d

Thank you for the kindness and positivity. I apologize but hope that there is some karma for the humans that did this poor Maximus.

Linda Oswald · 27d

Carly · 27d

Oh Maximus! So happy for this guy. Y'all are magic. ❤️❤️❤️

John · 27d

Be good to let previous 'torturers' see this video. Let them see the real maximus. Then tie them up with a chain and starve them. Oh is that too much? Bet lots of you were thinking it though.

HDHackman · 27d

What a beautiful little soul! I hope he has a life of love, happiness, and safety for all his remaining days. Thank you Niall for rescuing this abused and neglected animal.

tree-bee · 27d

i’d bet $ the person who called him dangerous & vicious is the same one who sliced off his ears. w/o anesthesia “As I was editing this video myself tonight, I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. To see him in his new home like that at the end is just a thing of beauty”

@dylan1james.bsky.social · 27d

I'm sitting here balling my eyes out. How do you handle seeing an animal that has been tortured like that. I would kill the fucking person who did that. I would legite put a bullet in him or her. Bless you guys for your work.

@triplerainbow333.bsky.social · 27d

When I saw his head resting on the center of the dog hammock, I started tearing up. My royally spoiled dog does the same thing. Thank you to his new owner for giving him the love he deserves.

Chris C · 27d

I love you guys more every day. I'm so grateful to be able to contribute in even my small way.

Nicky Maine · 27d

not with you anymore! In his own home :)

Nicky Maine · 27d

do you think some hard man wanted him to carry that reputation? That’s why he cut his ears off. Nothing like being the boss of such a hard and horrid dog. So glad he’s with you now, sweet boy.

@debu-m.bsky.social · 27d

Look at him now! Thank you for all you do.

Maureen · 27d

Maximus is an example for many Americans… you judge and condemn because of appearances. He is joy and love in flesh and bones. What a beautiful soul he is, as are the ‘others’ that MAGA targets and hates.

@kevezc.bsky.social · 27d

Oh Maximus! So glad to see you doing so well!!!!

RPaige502 · 26d

Regardless of what I think of pits, I don't believe in torturing them.

@emily404.bsky.social · 27d

Looks like he had been forced into managed dog fights which is horrific. What a great life he has, now. Thank you♥️

@judithanne.bsky.social · 27d

Love heals all. I don't even understand why anyone would cut his ears off. Find that person and do the same to him. 😡
