Maverick the German Shepherd, the Dog of the Day
Name: Maverick
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Male Breed: German Shepherd
Home: Montana, USA
 
   My dog's name is Maverick Mick Dundee, he is a German Shepherd. His parents came from Germany, but he was born here in America. Because of his German heritage, he does not have the sloped back like American German Shepherds from show dog lines tend to have.

     Maverick was just two months old when I got him. He was a gift from my grandpa. He wanted me to feel safe when I went out into public on my own. My grandpa asked me what breed did I want and I knew exactly what breed, since the German Shepherd had always had been my dream dog.

     Maverick helped me realize my talent in training dogs. He brings a smile to my face every day. I've taught him some dance moves and he taught me to be patient and just have fun. We are always learning new things about each other every day. He loves to do his tricks, he bows, waves, shakes, spins, weaves through my legs, backs up, prance, kicks out his paws with my feet, rounding up our mini horses and putting them away in their stall, and he knows all his basic commands, sit, lay down, stay, and in. He's loose leashed trained which helps a lot since he runs beside me on my bike. Most of the time he's off leash though.

      He is very friendly to people but there are times he growls at strangers. I have studied his behavior around different people and I found out he looks directly into their eyes, reading their personality and tells me if he doesn't like them. Maverick is my world!
