Maurice is an older gentleman with a heart of gold and a goofy streak that will keep you smiling. He’s house trained, well-mannered, and knows the rules of the house—human belongings are off limits, but his toys are fair game (and well loved!). Maurice is incredibly affectionate and a total cuddle bug. He loves being close to his people, whether that means curling up beside you on the couch or leaning in for some extra love. He can be a bit nervous when left alone at first, but once he settles into a routine, he does just fine and finds his groove. With his sweet nature, respectful habits, and charming goofiness, Maurice is the kind of dog who makes a house feel like a home. He’s looking for a loving family who will enjoy his cuddles, appreciate his good manners, and give him the comfort and consistency he deserves in his golden years. *Maurice is temporarily living in a foster home until they find their family. If you would like to meet Maurice, we recommend scheduling an appointment with one of our Adoptions Specialists, so we can ensure they are here to meet you when you arrive. Please click “Adopt Maurice” to complete an interest survey and one of our Adoptions Specialists will connect with you to set up an appointment!* If you would like more info, please call/text our adoptions team at 385-405-5145

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
