For his age, he listens well and is already learning **sit, shake a paw, fetch**, and (almost!) stay—his excitement sometimes gets the best of him, but his eagerness to learn is undeniable. Treats are his love language, and he’s quickly learning to take them gently… and to earn them by doing his business outside. ✨<br/><br/>This boy is **crate trained** and sleeps soundly through the night. If you hear a little whine, it’s just Moose politely letting you know he needs a quick outdoor break—then it’s right back to dreamland. He adores **all toys, chews, bones, and food**, so fair warning: if it hits the floor, Moose will consider it fair game!<br/><br/>Moose is learning the ropes of **leash walking** and can be a bit unsure when other dogs pass by, but with patience and reassurance, he’s gaining confidence. He’s got a serious case of **FOMO**, loves being involved, and would much rather be part of the action than miss out. Cold weather isn’t his favorite, but he’s working on it—especially when treats are involved.<br/><br/>With time to warm up, Moose does well with **kids, dogs, and even cats** (he’s figured out that cats don’t play like dogs and is happy to coexist). He’ll thrive in a home that’s **patient, supportive, and committed to continuing his training**, while helping him build trust and confidence. One important note: Moose will happily eat any food he can access, so a little extra care is needed in homes with young kids and snacks.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, slightly goofy companion who’s ready to learn and grow with you, **Moose might just be your perfect match** <br/><br/>If interested, please complete our application form found at https://animalguardian.org/how-to-help/adopting-a-rescue/adoption-applications/. Applications other than the TAGS form will not be considered.
