Hi Everyone!

We rescued MAVERICK in July with his brother TITAN. Then at 4 months old it must have been very scary to be wandering the streets and then ending up in a loud and chaotic shelter. Understandably both dogs were very cautious when we saved them. Thankfully we were able to place both dogs in a home environment with a foster family. Today we share an update on MAVERICK from his foster mom.

“Maverick is currently being fostered on a ranch. He was very unsure about ranch life, but he found out quickly that he had friends waiting for him to help him adjust. He is living with 2 dogs (6 yr.old  Male GSD, and 2 yr. old female GSD mix), a horse,chickens,2 cats and a bird. He is respectful with the dogs and understands boundaries. He loves toys and chews and can entertain himself. He sleeps through the night without a crate. He knows what to do when taken outside to go potty. He likes having a routine. He is currently taking pack walks, and learning leash pressure.

Maverick is introverted and shy around humans. He is easily overwhelmed even with people he knows, so it is tiny steps with engagement and encouragement. He is improving everyday.He looks to his dog mentors for confidence and reassurance.”

We are so thankful for the care of MAVERICK’S foster family who are helping him overcome the affects of being abandoned in a scary world. The best forever home for him would be a home that has another confident dog who can help be his mentor and playmate.
