Lost and Not Found: Hurricane Katrina Jack Russell




Max, a 7-year old brown and white Jack Russell Terrier, was one of the many dogs placed in local animal shelters during Hurricane Katrina, when fleeing residents were told they could not bring pets with them to hotels or to temporary housing facilities.

Max appears to have been one of the dogs airlifted from the Lamar Dixon Shelter in New Orleans on or about 09-10-05 and sent to California.

Unfortunately, Max was NOT supposed to be placed on a plane to California, and his records seem to have disappeared so there is no way to know where he has gone to.

Max's old owners are desperately looking for him, and are anxious to see him return home.

Max was 7 years old when he disappeared, and was an intact male, though he may now be neutured. He is white and brown with a brown face and ears with a thin line down the center of his face, and a patch of white on his upper left muzzle. He has half a brown saddle on his right shoulder, and a full brown saddle mid-back, and a large brown spot on his butt. His tail has been cropped as in the photo.

Please circulate a link to this page and/or pictures and a description to rescues, terrier lists, and pet owners as you see fit.
