Maverick is located in Whanganui

Maverick is a mixed breed pup about 8 months of age who has ended up in the pound through no fault of his. He was abandoned at an isolated beach where he survived for several days and nights, terrified and alone. Maverick is a only medium sized dog, and he will make a lovely family pet, a great buddy for outdoor activities and lounging about at home.. He is very cuddly and affectionate and just wants to bond with his human. A dog like Maverick would not do well home alone all day while the family go to work and school.

We have had Maverick vaccinated, registered and microchipped, so there is an adoption fee of $300 to contribute towards these costs.

Maverick's new home must have a safe secure place for him to be while you are out. ARAN dogs cannot be chained to kennels or left for very long periods home alone. All ARAN dogs must sleep indoors.

This dog is great with people and other dogs, but he does chase cats for fun, so he's probably best in a cat free home. he has been living in a trial adoptive home where he was doing so well, but he did chase the cats and was therefore returned to us.

Our adoptions are subject to an approval process, and if successful there is then a two week trial period, to make sure the dog is a good fit for you. If things don't work out they return to their foster home.

The first step if you are interested in adopting is to fill out an online adoption application which you can do here:
