While Max was not one of The King's personal horses, he was special to the Presley family, as they have taken in many horses over the years in honor of the late singer.
Max reportedly came from a rescue unit called, Six Horses Saved.
Priscilla arranged to have Max come to Graceland and instantly fell in love with him.
