My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please contact Caitlin Finn (caitlin.finn@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Handsome Maverick Needs a Home!

MAVERICK NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name:   Maverick          Best Guess for Breed:   Black Mouth Cur/Labrador Mix  

Best Guess for Age:   1 year as of November 2024          SEX:    Male

 

Approximate Weight:   46 lbs as of November 2024

 

Gets Along With:    Other dogs! We have not seen Maverick interact with kids or cats yet but he can be tested!

 

Currently Living at:   Shelter. Maverick needs a foster or an adopter to make his way to the DC Metro area

 

 

Special Adoption Considerations: Maverick is heartworm positive, but this Lucky Dog got extra lucky! This pup is part of a groundbreaking study we are conducting at our South Carolina Rescue Campus that has the potential to change the way shelters across the United States treat heartworm positive dogs.  All dogs in the study are placed at random in either the 2 shot or 3 shot protocol with strictly monitored protocols in place. Four weeks following their final injection, the pups are eligible to transport to the DC area for placement in foster or adoptive care.  After treatment concludes, we work with adopters to arrange a free follow up heartworm test after 6 months, followed by a second test at 9 months. 

We are happy to discuss this treatment and which phase of the study this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left!

 

Maverick is Looking For:    A family to take him on lots of adventures! Maverick is looking for a safe home with a family that will take him on long walks, give him chances to play with other doggo friends, and let him show off how smart he is in training! He mostly wants a loving family that will give him lots of treats, snuggles and belly rubs. Do you have room for Maverick in your family?!

What My Foster Says About Me:   Coming soon! We will update once Maverick has spent some time in his foster home.

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .

 

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
