Max is the name of the Golden Retriever that found refuge in its owner after losing his mom to a heart attack from gunpowder noise last year. The canines shared little time together, since at 11 months of age it was when the Golden had to live the departure of Luna, David’s first dog.
“I think that you have to go out with the animals and not always leave them in the house. In the biker guild we have the opportunity to go to many destinations,” said Guzmán.
The man from Cali works in a shock absorber company on the southern highway of the city, so in his spare time his priority has not only been to give his pets a better quality of life and steal a smile from the people who see them; if not lend a hand to the street animals who go through the need of hunger.
This is how, in the company of Max, they go out together to share croquettes around the city whenever they get the opportunity to do so.

Over time, Max has been equipped with more accessories to feel safer and calmer on his walks.
“We can go out with our puppies and always use the security implements so that they have a safe trip. That’s why three years ago I decided to install a sidecar on my motorcycle, so that I could travel with my pets without any problem”, he said.
The accessory that is screwed to the motorcycle, so that it can be removed and put on, costs between five and eight million pesos, regardless of what the driver wants. In addition, it is necessary that those interested take into account that the accessories can only be used with two people when the motorcycle is in motion.
This is how Max is one of the few lucky canines who have the possibility of sticking his tongue out in the breeze that ruffles his fur when David goes for a walk with him.
One of his most important walks was when they met Pereira together, in October of last year, where they received a recognition for originality, after undertaking the four-hour journey to the city of Pereira dressed as ‘Batman’ and ‘Superman’.

“They can also go for a walk with us, a seat belt like the one I use can also be used in a car”
For David, his pet is a therapist friendwhich he describes as a support for depression and anxiety.
So Max is not only growing his following on social media, he is also providing companionship to children with disabilities, as one of his neighbors as a whole.
“The issue is not to become famous, I want to show that they can also go for a walk with us, a seat belt like the one I use can also be used in a car. An important element because they are exposed to sudden braking and the animal is the first affected”.
Before leaving, David always makes sure to put on a vest to secure the belt that will protect him on the course, as well as the use of a helmet, glasses, raincoat, lights and good wheels for all his routes. The seat belt can be used with any harness and is available from a vet.
“Going out with Max is one of the best adventures I’ve ever had in my life. I think we will be covering many more kilometers”, said David.
