Meet Maverick

Add to favourites

ADOPTION PENDING :My name is Maverick and I am an approximately 7 year old St. Bernard/Golden Retriever mix. I had lots of matted hair, but the worst parts got shaved off and now I am a little funny looking, but feel so much better! I’m a very affectionate, loving kind a guy who is always looking for pets and cuddles. Better yet, if you have room for my Bestie Misha that I came to the Castlegar shelter with, that would be so awesome but should not discourage you from just looking at wonderful ME.

If this has sparked your interest, please stop by the Castlegar shelter Tuesday to Saturday from 1:00 to 4:00 or fill in an online adoption questionnaire and a staff member will contact you.
