Mocha Pit Bull Terrier Mix Rockaway, NJ

I am a beautiful chocolate colored girl who is 4 years old with the most stunning eyes that will melt your heart. I am one of the most affectionate dogs out there but I keep getting over looked.

Here's the thing with me....I arrived in 2012 and can't remember everything from my past, but I do know that someone witnessed me being thrown from a moving vehicle and because of that, I have some trust issues BUT PLEASE understand that I want to love you and trust you and I try really hard, but I get scared and can be reactive, so you need to give me a bit of time (and plenty of yummy treats) and once I trust you, there is nothing that you can't do to me. Once I give my trust (and it only takes a few visits) , it's yours 100% and I will love you with my whole heart and soul!

I would do best in a home with older, respectful kids and I am selective with other dogs. If they are submissive and calm, I have been calm but if they're in my face and hyper, I don't like that at all. For that reason, I may be best as the only pet in the home but if you have a calm doggy, we can do a meet and greet. I definitely cannot live with cats.

I was in a temporary foster home for 6 months and lived with a teenage girl and I was great but I had to come back through no fault of my own. I have wonderful house manners, I'm housebroken, know basic obedience, ride wonderfully in the car and am a really good girl. I'd love to have a family of my own real soon.

P.S. Mocha's adoption fee will be covered to an approved adopter by:
