Mordecai's Story

We lie to Mordecai. A lot.<br/><br/>Well... maybe we just dont correct him.<br/><br/>Things like, Youre absolutely lap-sized, or, Personal space is overrated. Little white lies. We just dont have the heart to tell him otherwise.<br/><br/>We do try to explain that the 4-pound Yorkie does not want to wrestle with him. Mordecai remains unconvinced. Why wouldnt everyone want to play?<br/><br/>Unfortunately, the dogs in his foster home are a bunch of fuddy-duddies. Morty is desperately hoping for a canine friend who appreciates a good old-fashioned wrestling match. He loves fetch, playing search, and hanging out with his people, but nothing beats puppy playtime with another dog.<br/><br/>And then there are the snuggles.<br/><br/>Morty believes there is no such thing as being too big for your lap. He wants to curl up beside you, drape himself across your legs, rest his head on your shoulder, and snore directly into your ear. His only flaw? Hes smack in the middle of that awkward teenage puppy stage and has absolutely no idea where those giant paws are going. (Our sincerest apologies to the men. )<br/><br/>He would do well with kids, but keep in mind hes a goofy, oversized puppy. Tiny humans may occasionally get knocked over... entirely out of enthusiasm. The ground is still the ground.<br/><br/>Cats? That depends entirely on the cat. If the cat confidently tells him to knock it off, Morty will probably flop onto his back in surrender. Hes wonderfully submissive. Big, scary dogs? Fine. The previously mentioned Yorkie? Terrifying. Balloons? Suspicious. Mops? Absolutely not. Morty rolls over for just about everything.<br/><br/>Mordecai is neutered, current on vaccinations, microchipped, and ready to find a family that appreciates a giant-hearted, goofy puppy who loves hard, plays hard, and has never met a lap he didnt think belonged to him.<br/><br/>His adoption fee is $250.
