Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Maverick! Maverick is a playful guy who loves chasing toys and will happily keep going long after your throwing arm gives out. He loves kids and is always ready for some fun. Maverick isn’t a huge cuddler, but he never turns down a good belly rub and has been becoming more affectionate with his foster family. He lets you know when he needs to go outside and does well on a leash once his initial excitement settles. Car rides aren’t his favorite, and he may pee when he gets overly excited or thinks he’s in trouble. His foster family is continuing to work with him on building confidence in those situations. And one of Maverick’s funniest quirks? He has a completely random love for dryer sheets. Maverick is a fun, playful boy who would love a family ready to keep the toys flying and the belly rubs coming. Medical Notes: Neutered  Vaccinated Dewormed Microchipped Heartworm Negative Maintained on monthly preventatives Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 20, 2026, 5:37 pm

So I am pretty sure my rescuers were HUNGRY when they named us ;0 Cashew is my name and i am as delightful as a sweet n nutty n salty treat. Not only was I named after food...my babies were too! Who names puppies Chicken, Banana and Raisin?? Hungry rescuers, thats who!!!! Now , when we were found, we were HUNGRY TOO! We were "living" at a gas station in the 90 to 100 degree temperatures and unbelievable flooding 🌧.... so yep, we r SURVIVORS! As mama to this crew I was so very scared for our safety but was also scared of the people helping us... fast forward to today! I love my people and my babies r grown and finding their own homes... its my turn now! I am a good girl, great size of 30# and a heart full of love and adventure! Adopt me soon!! Local adoption fee is $300 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
