Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Maverick is a four-month-old mixed breed and a lively ball of energy! When he's not racing from room to room, Maverick loves to be carried in your arms. He thrives on being held close and loves cuddling up with his humans. Maverick was timid at first and needed some time to adjust to his new environment, settling in after about a week. He's making great progress with house training, and sleeps quietly in his crate after a few minutes of settling in. Maverick prefers having his humans nearby and may need a little patience as he continues to build confidence when left alone. Maverick has had a few successful playdates with other dogs, but would really benefit from continued socialization to help him feel more comfortable around other dogs. He hasn’t had a lot of experience with cats or kids. A proper introduction is recommended when making new friends, particularly with small children as he gets a bit jumpy when excited. Like most puppies, Maverick is learning quickly and eager to please. He already knows “sit” and is working on “stay” and “lay down.” He’s a high-energy boy who thrives on activity, so he will require a home with a fenced yard where he can run and explore safely. He loves squeaky toys, bones, and his stuffed lambs, and when playtime is over, he’s happiest curled up next to his people. He's sweet, silly, and full of potential! Maverick is ready to bring love and endless puppy joy to his forever home.

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
