My Maverick

What can I say about Maverick? Maverick was a sweet, loving friend to me for nearly 13 years. He stayed by my side through many ordeals in my life and proved to be a great companion many times over. Over the years he developed some health issues, had a stroke, was hospitalized, and was on daily medication until the day he passed. Maverick loved to torment his brothers Sonny and Moose and his sisters Sasha and Dakota when he could and gave them a run for their money when it came to bullying for the food bowl. He even gave me a run for my money many times when I attempted to take away things he shouldn’t have like underwear, large bones, glasses, his leash, or anything else he thought he should or could chew! Maverick provided me with lots of entertaining stories and now lasting memories of how a dog can be a true friend. Alexander grew to love Maverick and enjoyed going outside with him and chasing him around. Ricardo on the other hand, wasn’t as fond of Maverick as some but respects his place in my life and is sorry for my loss. Sonny will press on as well without his brother and will now get all of the attention and treats which I’m sure will be a bonus to him in some ways. Maverick is now in heaven with Moose and Sasha and many of the other pets our family has had…Cricket, Dakota, Sophie, and many more. Mavy Doddle Dandy you will be missed! We love you!
