Description
Dog Breed: Terrier. Meet Maverick — a 1‑year‑old mixed‑breed boy from Georgia with a heart as big as his spirit. We don’t know how he ended up in the shelter or how he lost his leg, but what we do know is just how sweet, fun, and full of life he is. Maverick previously lived with a small dog in Georgia and did wonderfully. His big‑dog test is still pending, and we’ll update his profile once that’s complete. He gets very excited when he sees cats and wants to play, so a home with a dog‑savvy cat or no cats would be best. He’s great with kids, and even though he has three legs, he moves like he has four — running, jumping, and playing without hesitation. Maverick is on Dasuquin long‑term to support his joints, which is common for tripod pups and helps keep him feeling his best. Maverick is joyful, resilient, and ready for a family who will embrace his goofy energy and his incredible spirit. If you’re looking for a young dog who doesn’t let anything slow him down, Maverick is excited to meet you. Please note: All of our animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Each pet also receives a behavioral assessment to help us better understand the type of home they may thrive in. However, it’s important to remember that the results may not fully reflect an animal’s true personality, as shelter and foster environments can be stressful. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: .acskc/adopt-1 Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply! _ When it comes to our pets, we're all-inclusive!

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.
