Maverick

Apply to Adopt Me!<br/>FOSTER, FOSTER-TO-ADOPT, or ADOPTER NEEDED FOR MAVERICK<br/><br/>This handsome guy is Maverick! His name is strong and regal, and it is very fitting for this amazing German Shepherd. He may be full GSD, and looks to be, but since we don't know, we are calling him a mix. This approx. 3-year-old, 58-lb. boy is always alert and knows your every move. He is a protector of his family. His beautiful brown eyes give looks of adoration at times and a gentleness that submits to petting and loving. His eyes and ears show the intensity for his devotion to carrying out his purpose in guarding and loving his forever family. He is very intelligent, as we have seen Maverick adapt to his foster home quickly.<br/>Maverick loves to cuddle and lay beside you on the sofa or the floor, wherever you are, he will be there. He wants to always be near his family. When you chill, he chills! sleeps through the night and gently wakes in the morning when his foster parents get up. Maverick does not bother anything in the home. He loves to play ball, but that is best done outdoors, because he gets too excited in the house. Maverick was found as a stray and ended up in the shelter, where he participated in social groups with other dogs, where he did well. He wants to play with other dogs<br/>but his current fosters don't have another dog. Cats are unknown so, due to his size, we will not adopt him to a home with a cat.<br/>Maverick is a joy to walk around the neighborhood and to take on hikes. He doesn’t pull on his leash and is always happy to accompany you. He’s great in the car as well. We have not observed him around children, but he has walked in busy areas and hasn't reacted to anyone. He is so affectionate that sometimes he’ll lay his head on your lap or yelp to get your attention. He likes to play with interactive toys inside and would definitely like to play ball outside in a fenced yard.<br/><br/>Maverick is a guard dog and will aggressively bark when strangers come to the door or enter the home. For this reason, if the home has visiting children, he will not be the best fit. He<br/>needs someone who can devote the time to get professional training for him to help him discern<br/>between friends or threats to the family. He did spend a few days in doggy daycare/boarding where he did great with other dogs as well as the staff.<br/><br/>We are requiring an adopter with GSD experience as well as a secure minimum 6-ft. fenced yard for him. Maverick can't wait to find his forever, active family. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Maverick, complete an<br/>app and tell us more about your family.
