My name is Moose!

Meet Moose!

This handsome middle-aged gentleman we believe is a Boxer Lab Pit mix. Moose weighs about 60 pounds but would gladly put on a few extra unneeded pounds if given the chance! Moose AKA Grandpa has a few things he would like to share with everyone:

“Hello There!
My name is Moose, and my favorite things in the world are food, naps, and relaxing with my humans. Did I mention food?

Foster Mom says I’m working hard on learning house rules since I didn’t have many before. I’m figuring out how to play with toys and enjoy the company of my five fur siblings. While I’m a bit socially awkward when it comes to playtime, I love being their biggest fan and cheering them on!

I think every new person I meet is my BFF. I’m polite, though—I wait patiently for them to come to me and hopefully offer a treat!

Here’s what makes me extra special:

I meet new dogs appropriately.
I’m amazing in my crate and house-trained.
I won’t drag you down the street on a leash.
I’m great with other dogs and gentle with kids, including Foster Mom’s 6-month-old daughter.
Oh, and I snore like your favorite Grandpa!”
If Moose sounds like the right fit for your home, please reach out! He’s ready to be your new best friend and bring some chill vibes to your life.

So far my foster mom has learned that every new person is my BFF. Although I love people, I won't drag you over to meet someone new I will patiently wait until they come over to say HELLO and pray they have a snack for me! I meet new dogs appropriately, I'm amazing in the crate, house trained, and I won't pull you down the street. I'm extremely treat motivated, good with other dogs, and a perfect gentleman with Foster Mom's 6-month old daughter.

I know I sound perfect so far because I am and I'd love to tell you more about myself when you inquire about me! Also if you have gotten to the end of my speech I want to thank you and let you know that my nickname is Grandpa because I can fall asleep anywhere, in any position, and start snoring in an instant like your typical Grandpa.
