More: Maverick is a wonderful puppy that has filled the hole in our hearts. You see we have owned golden retriever dogs for the last 20 years now. We lost our last one a year ago and our home was so empty without a dog. We knew we wanted another golden. Luckily, the good lord saw to it that we got our boy. When the litter was being born they had 2 girls and then Maverick and then 4 more girls. He is the only boy in the entire litter. He is growing up to be a great canine citizen. Learning obedience and agility.
