Hope For Paws set out to rescue a homeless dog who was abandoned in downtown Los Angeles. With nowhere to park, Eldad asked Jackie to clear a spot on the sidewalk of a campus for just a moment. As always, time was of the essence when trying to get an animal to safety.

A student had sat down with the dog and fed him, but the pup wouldn’t allow anyone near. After campus security showed up to make Hope For Paws move their vehicle, the stray took off across the street. They approached carefully and cautiously as not to spook the dog in traffic. They offered food, but he was not interested.

Eldad was able to come up from behind and capture the dog with the gentle snare, but the pup had no idea they were actually trying to help him. The dog flashed his teeth at them out of fear, but he would eventually come around in the sweetest way. 🙂

Maxwell was cleaned up and checked out and continued on to his foster with LA Animal Rescue. You can contact them if interested in giving Maxwell his forever home.

Any small donation will help Hope For Paws rescue more dogs like Maxwell. And simply sharing the video helps too!
