Max, 3, was wearing a Russian collar, starving, and close to death when Ukrainian forces found him and brought him to safety.
The dog survived by eating scraps he found while wandering the forest, and Ukrainian soldiers took pity on him and nursed him back to health.

“We can’t understand why the Russians would leave behind such a lovely animal,” a Ukrainian soldier said.
Max recovered with his new unit and was enrolled in a combat training program.
Now, he knows several Ukrainian commands and is learning to sniff out mines.
“Max has already found many new friends among the National Guard and together with them is quite good at the tasks given — catching Rashist filth and clearing the Ukrainian Land from it. But most importantly, from now on he has a real strong military family,” the military unit posted on Facebook.

Serving in the Ukrainian National Guard, Max, who is said to be very clever, joins the ranks of dogs such as Ukrainian Medal of Honor recipient Patron, a Jack Russell terrier.
“The main tasks are to check citizens on checkpoints and search for saboteurs,” one Ukrainian soldier reportedly said.
Max will also be taught to identify and find people and explosives.

“The dogs of this breed, namely ‘Belgian shepherd,’ have a very good, almost perfect memory,” the soldier said.
