Moose's Story

How this pet arrived: Moose was brought in by a community member on March 25, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you: Meet Moose, a handsome pup who's ready to find a home that will let him shine at his own pace. He can be a little shy at first and his stoic expression means he sometimes keeps people guessing, but that just adds to his charm. Moose is looking for patient adopters who understand that the best friendships are built with time, trust and a little space to settle in. Moose would do best with kids ages 8+ who can join in a thoughtful introduction and follow adult guidance. He'll appreciate a family that lets him make the first move, respects when he needs a break and uses a gentle "pet, pet, pause" approach when he's asking for attention. Moose is currently being treated for ear and skin infections, which we suspect are related to allergies. While he is responding well to treatment now, allergies can sometimes be a recurring part of a pup's life, so he'll need a family ready to follow up with their vet to keep his skin clear and his ears happy for the long haul. With kindness, patience and a calm welcome, Moose has all the makings of a wonderful companion. Give him a little time, and you just might see this reserved guy turn into your new best buddy. <br/>Shy/Fearful Dog: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them. Primary Color: Blue Secondary Color: Grey Weight: 77lbs Age: 1yrs 7mths 2wks Animal has been Neutered
