SENIOR -- STILL WATING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME!

Maverick has been in our program since November 2015. WAITING, HOPING, for his forever.  He is a 70 pound, mature  Pibble Mix. He has a golden tan coat with white on his chest, feet, and face. Maverick spent years tied outside where he could see other dogs, but could never get close enough o interact with them.  Because of that, he needed to learn proper interaction with other dogs. He learned to enjoy multiple daily walks with his canine friends at the kennel, both male and female.  Maverick has excelled at basic obedience and enjoys the mental activity of doing it daily.


Since moving to a foster home, he is enjoying cuddle time on a couch with his humans and all the comforts of home. 

Maverick has quite the joy for life.  He loves toys.  Lots of them.  And he’ll literally love them to pieces. He loves blankets!  After years of living outside, he now loves to burrow into a pile a blankets and cover himself up until he is completely hidden. He loves walks, meeting new people, cuddling and affection.  He adores car rides, even to the vet, and he is always a well-behaved gentleman there. He has really thrived in his new foster home after being given much love while at our holding kennel. 

We think he is OK with cats although he is not around them in our care. A home with older, dog savvy, or no kids would be best for Maverick.  His ideal would have a fenced yard.  It would also require someone willing to provide a steady supply of chewies and be able to keep Maverick safe from trash can raids or counter surfing.  Yes, he is an opportunist.  His forever home should enjoy Mav’s unique, somewhat quirky, personality and be able to provide guidance, mental stimulation, and exercise in addition to loving this big goofball.

Maverick has been in his foster home since October 2017.  

His foster family has actually fostered for five years before joining the H2H team.  They fostered in another state and Maverick is their 14th foster dog.   They said that Maverick is by far the SWEETEST dog they have ever fostered and they cannot believe he is not yet adopted! 

On a recent walk they saw four cats, two little dogs and one big shepherd in a back yard throwing a fit.  When we saw the cats, he seemed curious but not enough to pursue or even take a step in their direction. It seemed like he didn’t mind these other creatures…he had a home to return to, foster or not, it is his for now.  He seems content and happy, too happy and content to bother with these little four legged distractions.
