Maverick Maverick

Maverick is a SUPER NICE DOG! Maverick is a very affectionate one-year-old Chocolate Lab mix who is a very easy keeper. He loves people and dogs and wants to be friends with everyone. He is working on his leash manners, and because he is extremely food motivated, he a joy to train. This intelligent boy is quick to learn your routine and adjusts to it. For a Lab mix he is quite low key and doesn't need a lot of exercise, though he's up for a hike if you are! He sleeps in his bed through the night and wakes up between 6 am and 7 a.m. He wants to spend his day stretched out next to his humans, making him a great work-from-home companion. He loves playing with his toys, but he's usually done in about ten minutes and settles down for a nap. Maverick is fully housetrained and rides very well in the car. He's just a big goofy boy looking for his humans to shower them with love and affection! Please apply at https://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp, and someone will get right back to you..

His foster family says, "He’s a fully house-trained, smart, and food-motivated dog who is already learning tricks and eager to please. He does great in the car, even on longer rides (he handled an hour each way with no issues), and has been excellent on walks, both with new people and other dogs. At home, he settles nicely and sleeps in a dog bed at the foot of the bed, only hopping up in the morning to let you know he’s ready to go outside. He has a nice balance of energy, happily going from playful to relaxed, but he is still in his chewing phase, so a dog-proofed home and supervision are important. He hasn’t spent much time in a crate and does tend to bark when crated, so that’s an area that would benefit from continued training. He’s an early riser, usually up around 6 AM, but also settles easily for the night and is happy to go to bed as early as 9 PM. He met our elderly mom and her cat and was great with both of them."
