About Maverick

Maverick is a strong, buff Pit Bull Terrier who came to the shelter as a stray and was never claimed. Since arriving, he’s been well-mannered and eager to please, but his time here shouldn't drag on—like far too many pits, the longer he’s kept waiting, the more likely he’ll suffer from the stress and routine of shelter life. Don’t let Maverick be another overlooked story. He’s smart, quick to learn, and food motivated. Maverick already knows basic commands but he’s ready for more, especially if treats are involved. This dog is energetic and thrives on regular walks, so you’ll get a built-in exercise partner. Maverick is curious and alert, always taking in the world around him. He needs an adopter with experience handling strong dogs on leash. Maverick should be the only pet in the home and is best suited for families with children over 12, simply because he doesn’t always realize his own strength.
