Get to Know Maverick

Maverick lived the wild mustang life, traded it in for domestication, and never looked back! He is a barn favorite and friend to all. If you ASK Maverick to join your team, he will give you his heart and soul. If you TELL Maverick anything, he will want no part of whatever it is you want him to do. He learns quickly and is doing excellent groundwork. With the right person, Maverick is ready to learn his job.
