About Maverick

Adoption Fee: $500
Australian Shepherd / Border Collie
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

With heavy hearts, we must find a new home for our beloved Australian Shepherd, Maverick (2.5 years). Despite rescuing him 9 months ago and forming an incredible bond, our upcoming cross-country move to a city environment wouldn't be fair to this active, outdoor-loving pup. Maverick is a sweet, affectionate velcro dog who loves to howl along with his humans! DNA tested at 82% Australian Shepherd, he's great with other dogs but can be submissive around dominant ones. He is fully house-trained, neutered, and completed basic obedience training. His auto-immune condition is well-managed with Prednisone and in remission. Due to his herding instincts, Maverick needs a home without small children or cats. He's also reactive to passing bikes. The ideal home would be with an active family who enjoys hiking and can provide him plenty of space to run. He travels wonderfully in cars. Looking for experienced dog owners who understand the breed and can give Maverick the loving home he deserves.
