Wags4Kids ~ Donations for Max

Max was first diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy when he was 18 months old after he first began to have difficulty walking and balancing.  At 18 months old Max received his first set of bilateral hip braces and learnt to walk using these devices.  He has also undergone Botox injections in his legs, casting of both his lower legs at the same time, and continuous physical therapy in and out of school.  Max also suffers from quite severe anxiety about going outside in the summer for which he receives medication.   Max is a fun loving boy with a great sense of humor who likes building legos, playing video games and spending time with his friends.  He is very excited at the thought of the privilege of having a WAGS service dog to assist him in his day to day life.  One of the major benefits will be Max being able to use the dog as a brace on the stairs and while walking to reduce the amount of falls he has.   Due to the leg braces he currently wears Max has a difficult time balancing to bend down to retrieve dropped objects.  Max and his family know how blessed we are to have a trained WAGS dog to help Max improve his standard of living.
