Maverick

Sweet Boy Maverick

We acquired him through packfinders CT, he was found at a dump with many of his siblings. He was found to be laying ontop of one of his brothers to try and keep him warm but sadly he passed, they found Mavericks Body temp in the negatives and he was luckily to be alive.

Maverick once known as Frasier is almost a year old now. He is chipped and up to date on everything, per vet and daycare best time to neuter him will be around a year. he was found with worms and we managed to clean his system up quickly.

He can be very energetic at times needing to run around but also can be a very sleepy dog, he’s trained to be in his crate but doesn’t like to be left alone for long periods of time. He also seems to show signs of separation anxiety at times always needing someone near him even if he can hear you, he can’t see you.

He loves rubs and cuddles. He seems to find a hiding spot and will stick to it if he can just relaxing.

He is very well with young children as well.
