My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Maverick is very smart and knows his commands: come, sit, down, stay, heel, place, and leave it.  He is a confident boy and very playful, but needs structure and proper leadership. Maverick would make a great companion for an active dog owner.  He's social with other dogs, but can be pushy, so he would do best as the only dog in the home or with a submissive female. He would thrive in a quiet active home with no children.  Maverick is very food and toy motivated, and loves to learn new tricks! He had issues with resource guarding and impulse control, so any potential adopters must be willing to reinforce his training to ensure his next home is his forever home and set him up for success, and not failure.
