My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Moose, a fun-loving and independent male dog with a big heart and a playful spirit! Moose is an active and high-energy walker who enjoys exploring his surroundings, but he’s also happy to entertain himself with some solo play. He’s a social butterfly who loves attention and affection, and during his assessment, he soaked up all the love from staff members. While he enjoys being around people, Moose also appreciates his independence and can entertain himself when he’s not the center of attention.

Moose is treat-motivated, though he can be a bit picky with his snacks, so finding the right treat will be key to winning him over! He knows the command sit and is always eager to show off his skills.

When it comes to other animals, Moose has shown some mild fear when meeting new dogs, so any introductions should be done slowly and with care to ensure everyone’s comfort. We recommend a dog-to-dog meeting to make sure their playstyles align. Moose has been around cats before and was interested in playing with them, but the cats weren’t fond of him. If living with cats, a very slow and gradual introduction over several weeks (not days) would be necessary to ensure a harmonious relationship.

While we don’t have any history with children, Moose’s sweet and affectionate nature suggests he could potentially do well in a home with older kids who can give him space when needed.

Moose is an active, playful, and loving dog who’s ready to find a family that will appreciate both his social side and his independent nature. If you’re looking for an energetic companion who enjoys playtime and affection in equal measure, Moose might just be the perfect fit for your home!

Once you decide on an animal, you will meet with one of the adoption counselors to go over the adoption contract, your new pet’s medical history, and answer any questions you may have. Adopters will need a valid photo ID and must be 18 years of age. After completing your adoption, you’ll take your first family photo with your new addition before taking your new pet home!

More about this shelter

The Toledo Area Humane Society was founded on February 14, 1884. As one of the oldest humane societies in the United States, our original purpose was to prevent cruelty and provide refuge for both animals and children. To this day, we investigate cruelty to animals and provide homeless, abused and abandoned animals with protection and safety. TAHS is a private, non-profit organization and receives no funding from the United Way, the government, or national humane organizations. Donations from local individuals, corporations and generated by our fundraisers are the sole source of funding. Programs like Forever Friends, for people who include TAHS in their wills, and the Golden Paw League, for people who give gifts of $250 or more, have been established to give people donation options and to recognize their generosity. Volunteers help supplement the staff assisting with tasks both inside and outside of our facility. Volunteers provide enrichment for animals such as walking dogs or socializing cats. The Humane Education and Pet Therapy Visitation programs are dependent on our volunteers. Foster care volunteers provide a safe, nurturing environment for animals too young for adoption and for sick or injured animals. It is our goal to help every animal at-risk for abandonment or cruelty, and to find a home for every adoptable animal. The Humane Society is the only animal welfare group in this community who will give refuge to any animal at-risk for abuse or neglect, regardless of its type, health, age or whether we have space.
