Meet Maverick! I'm a very playful hound mix male pup about 10 weeks old. I love to play with my foster dog siblings and get along with cats, chickens, ducks, and dogs! I can be annoying to some dogs because of my puppy energy, but I'm learning. I crate at night and during the day for meal times. I'm quiet in my crate. I'm doing very good with potty training and learning a schedule. I love elk antlers to chew on and I love my Kong toys. Running in the yard and sniffing new stuff is my favorite. I love being part of a family. Snuggles on the couch are nice! I also love to sleep snuggled by the fire with one of my big dog sisters or brothers. I learn fast from the other dogs. Do you have room for me in your family??
Please keep in mind there are many factors to consider when choosing the right match for a puppy, so an application cannot guarantee adoption. Nor do we work on a "first come first served" basis, but rather strive to find the best match for the personality of each dog. At the time of adoption, the puppy will be current on vaccinations and deworming. He or she will come with a pre-scheduled appointment at our vet to be spayed or neutered that the adopter is obligated to keep. The puppy will also be microchipped at this time. Please consider the time and effort it takes to raise a puppy. Foster puppies are typically NOT potty trained. They require time and patience from their adopter. If you are NOT serious about adoption and have not discussed the possiblility of adding a new canine to your home with ALL live in family members, DO NOT APPLY. Volunteers spend countless hours reviewing applications, calling references, and scheduling home visits. Please be sure you are ready to add a puppy to your home BEFORE applying.
Our puppy adoption fee is $400 plus a $50 training deposit, which is refunded to the adopter when he or she provides proof of having completed a basic obedience class with their puppy. As part of our adoption process, references both personal and veterinarian will be checked. Sadie's also requires a home visit before we adopt any of our dogs out; therefore we only adopt to our local WNY region.
