Maverick is an energetic and goofy boy who still needs some help building his confidence in new situations. Initially, he showed a bit of fear when it came time to leash him, requiring encouragement to come inside. However, once outside, his playful spirit came alive as he happily explored his surroundings. On walks, expect him to pull on the leash and playfully tug at it when excitement strikes. With a fun, slightly quirky personality, Maverick can be a bit of a space cadet at times. He shows interest in toys but tends to appear unsure and intimidated by them, adding to his endearing charm. This handsome pup already knows the "sit" command and is highly motivated by treats, though he can get a little overzealous when snacks are involved. Maverick is comfortable with being handled—he allows touching of his paws, ears, and tail without any fuss. His curiosity often shines through as he wonders why the focus is on him. This sweet boy is seeking an active home that can help him gain confidence while providing plenty of exercise and positive reinforcement. With a little patience and guidance, Maverick is bound to thrive. Maverick came to the shelter as an owner surrender, along with his sister, Nyla. He is up to date on vaccinations, licensed, and microchipped, making him ready for a new home. Think you could be the one for Maverick? Apply now and help him find his forever family.
