Maverick is a wonderfully happy-go-lucky guy just waiting for new home and someone to play with. There is a story there somewhere - Maverick is missing part of his tail. But it does not bother him a bit. He is sweet and energetic but not tough guy at all. He has a wonderful snow coat and that is about all we know about him at this point.

Here is what one of our volunteers who spent some time with Maverick has to say about him:
Maverick is all boy. He loves to explore, hunt and dig in the dirt. He has a healthy prey drive which means that he might not be suited for a home with small furry friends, but he will be an excellent hiking companion. He is a great size for traveling in a travel crate or the back of a station wagon or small SUV. He is sturdy enough to carry his own pack and nimble enough to jump through the tall grass instead of walk through it. This leads me to believe he will also jump through deep snow. And since his tail is cut off just below the traditional Mal curl, he does not have a fuzzy burr catcher following him. He is a strong and sturdy dog that will need a sturdy fence to keep him from wandering to follow his nose. All in all he will make a great companion for any active home. His hunting skills will amuse just about anyone.

Maverick is in Goldendale, WA.
