Maxwell: Back in the USA and Friends

Maxwell:  Back in the USA and Friends Both have been adopted and truly HOME! Max will now host the page! Hi, we're Maxwell and Tigger! We once lived happily in Stratford, CT with our dad, Brad.

Maxwell and Tigger, originally from Stratford, CT, are back home in Connecticut from Kenya, Africa where they were left stranded after their owner died unexpectedly in the summer of 2023. He found love and moved, with us soon following, to Kenya, Africa in 2021. Our dad came back to the States in 2023 for surgery, and unexpectedly passed away in a motorcycle crash leaving us stranded in Africa. We

were originally adopted from two different groups: Zen Dog CT and In the Nic of Time, which is no longer in operation. Zen Dog CT was Tigger's rescue and took responsibility to get us both back home to Connecticut. We stayed with the wonderful people at the Kenya SPCA in Mombasa for a few months while SO many people back in the US helped to fundraise and share our story so that we could come home. It took a village, and the village came through! We thank each and every one of you who donated, shared and followed our story--each one of you helped us get home! In early March of 2024, we were finally cleared to fly home. The Small Five Animal Clinic picked us up from the KSPCA and drove us to the airport in Nairobi for our 15 hour plane ride on Kenyan Airways into JFK in New York. Soon after arrival, we moved into our foster home in Milford, CT. We've been decompressing and getting used to our daily routine. It's much cooler here than Africa, and we like that! Foster mom takes us for daily walks and we have our very own special bedroom with a surplus of sleeping areas to choose from; after all, we're seniors and we like to rest! We've also got a fenced yard and patio with kuranda beds to lounge on--what could be better?! What COULD be better is a forever home! We can be adopted together or separately as we are not bonded. Although we've been through so much together, we are not the very best of friends--we're two older gentleman who tolerate one another. Please message the page if you'd like more info on our perfect retirement home! In the meantime, we'll be posting pictures and videos of our day-to-day and hope you'll follow along!

“Fireworks season” has begun!🧨🎇😩 Please use increased caution with your pets who may be extra sensitive to the sounds.🐾

🎇Here is a list of some of the Fireworks in CT starting this weekend 🎆

🎆 Fireworks season is starting across Connecticut, and while we may enjoy the celebrations, many dogs do not.

CT Dog Gone Recovery wants to remind everyone to please keep your dogs SAFE during fireworks season. Loud noises can cause even the calmest dogs to panic and run.

🐾 Keep dogs INSIDE during fireworks🐾 Create a quiet, safe space for them at home🐾 Keep windows, doors, and gates secure🐾 Walk dogs BEFORE fireworks begin🐾 If outside, ALWAYS keep dogs leashed🐾 Never assume your dog “won’t run”🐾 Make sure collars, tags, and microchip information are up to date

Sadly, every year many dogs go missing after being startled by fireworks. A few extra precautions can save lives and prevent heartbreak.

Please help us spread awareness and keep Connecticut dogs safe this summer. ❤️🐶

‼️Please share for the Hartford dogs!

Hartford Animal Control is calling it a crisis. Dog dumping has become such a problem that the facility may be forced to start euthanizing healthy dogs.
