Bernie and Maverick

Bernie 2 years & Maverick 4years<br/><br/>Both Medium Energy Mixes<br/><br/>House-trained<br/><br/>Comfortable in restricted area<br/><br/>Walk nicely on leash<br/><br/>Calm, sweet love bugs<br/><br/>Bernie is more outgoing: Maverick is timidWe are a bonded father-son duo; our previous family was going through a divorce and could no longer keep us, so they made the tough decision to give us up.<br/><br/>As you can see Dad (Bernie) is a handsome guy who is a flat-coated retriever possibly mixed with Bernese mountain dog. Dad hitched up with a golden retriever to produce me, Maverick. I am no slouch in the looks department either!<br/><br/>Dad is the leader of our mini-pack; he is outgoing and friendly. I am significantly shyer and will take longer to warm up in my new home, but I will. I am doing much better since I started taking an anti-anxiety medication. I will need to stay on it while I transition to our new home and may need it for my lifetime.<br/><br/>We are good in the car and love playing in our fenced yard and going for walks. We both totally adore our foster mom and follow her everywhere. And when she comes home from being away we jump on her to let her know how happy we are to see her. We DO NOT do that to guests in our house, however. Dad is happy to hang with foster dad; I am somewhat unsure of men, but I am warming up to foster dad.<br/><br/>Here’s what foster mom has to say about us:<br/><br/>“They are seriously the best and sweetest dogs. They love any attention. They are love bugs and just want attention and pets. But they also calm down quickly and nap after play time.”<br/><br/>Good with kids? They have done well with kids 8 and older.<br/><br/>Good with other dogs? They got along with the smaller dogs of their previous owners’ family members; they have not been exposed to other dogs in their foster home. They do not react to other dogs when out walking.<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $825<br/><br/>Medical: Bernie is taking fish oil to help with itchiness on his paws and neck. Maverick takes 40 mg of Fluoxetine daily to manage his anxiety.<br/><br/>Requirements: The boys need a fenced yard (Maverick is a flight risk) and someone home more often than not. They also need a family who is patient and willing to let them adapt to their new home at their pace.
