Meet Mossimo - APPS CLOSED

Mossimo is a spunky pittie mix who’s estimated to be about 4 years old and was found as a stray. The suburban shelter that found him determined soon after that he is heart worm positive. On top of that, he has a series of other medical issues including a scar on his cornea, Lyme disease, and crusty patches of skin from having fleas prior to arriving at the shelter.

Despite everything going on with him, he is still a very happy go lucky boy and loves affection. He will crawl up in your lap and try to get as close to you as possible, and when you stop petting him, he will lick your hand to let you know that you weren’t allowed to stop yet. While he loves all of the attention, he’s also surprisingly good at knowing when to just lay down and enjoy the company.

No matter what’s happening, he always has a smile on his face and gives the best hugs and kisses! He absolutely loves all dogs and people! He was also cat-tested initially at the shelter and was curious but not threatening. He hasn’t been tested with children yet but based on how much he loves EVERYONE he meets, we think he’d be fine with older children, but are happy to test him if you’re interested.

Mossimo will make a great road trip companion! He sits happily in the back seat like a good boy and may occasionally ask for pets, but he’s pretty polite about it. He loves climbing the snow piles outside, so he would also make a good hiking buddy! When he’s not going places, he enjoys chomping on some bones and being the best meatball he can be.

His foster mom says he’s the easiest dog! He already knows sit, come, settle, and stay commands! He is fully potty trained and attaches to his humans quickly. He is still working on his crate training but is improving. He’s also learning that as much as he wants to be close to his people, jumping on them is a no-no, which is why we suggest only older kids for him until he learns that 60lbs of jumping meathead is not always a good thing no matter how cute you are!
