Mo Labrador Retriever & German Shepherd Dog Mix Bellingham, WA

Meet Mo - a big, goofy guy who needs a patient home ready to invest in his future. Mo needs a home where he will have a predictable routine as he is still getting used to the idea of new things and people. We will require Mo to be signed up for one private lesson to get him started off on the right paw. Further training is highly recommend to help him refine some manners, learn basic skills, and help him bond with his new person/family! Mo was not exposed to much in his previous home and will need slow and supervised exposure to new things in his daily life, especially with new dogs. Once Mo is comfortable with you, he is the biggest cuddle bug and loves to receive belly rubs. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.

Hi, my name is Mo! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home:

-Personality: Goofy, active
-Can Live with Kids: 10+, up to counselor's discretion.
-Can Live with Cats: Unknown history, likely too overwhelming for cats.
-Can Live with Dogs: Mo could live with a female dog of similar energy and size. He would really benefit from a WELL socialized dog to interact with him and show him the ropes of being a dog! All initial introductions are done at WHS to ensure everyone gets along. He does have fear based reactivity with male dogs.
-Can do Apartment Living: No, Mo is a large guy and needs a larger area to roam around and explore.
-Potty Trained: Appears to be
-Bite History: No
-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: Yes, one private lesson required.
-Energy Level: High
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, neuter/MC
