My story

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


Maverick is a 3 year old Great Dane mix. His DNA results came back as 60%PitBull 30%Great Dane and 7%Rhodesian Ridge Back. He is a GOOFY, fun loving boy who has lots of energy to burn. He loves to spend hours chewing on a bone and playing with his toys. Maverick went to a 6 week board and training program and his trainer will meet with his new family to bring them up to speed on his commands.
It breaks our hearts more than words can describe to have to make this choice but he is not good with small children and we have a 3 month old. I fear the more mobile she gets the bigger the risk of something unfortunate happening are. He really is the sweetest, funniest dog I have ever had. I hope he can find a family who suits his needs. Under no circumstances should he be in a home with another dog or children under the age of 13. He has grown up around my cat but I would introduce on leash.
