About Mochi

🌟 Meet the incredible Mochi! This sweet girl has a heart full of love just waiting to bloom! 🌸 She was discovered roaming the East Gate Apartments in Warsaw, and oh boy, was she scared! 😔 Initially held by a kind finder, she showed that she was great with both dogs and kids. After coming into the caring arms of our rescue, she got all her vaccinations and was spayed, ready for her forever home! But here's where her story takes a little twist... For a whole FIVE months, Mochi waited in the shelter, hoping that someone would see the spark in her soulful eyes. Instead, she shrank in fear, greeting every newcomer with her head down and tail tucked between her legs. But get this: there's another side to Mochi! 😄 One compassionate staff member discovered the playful, joyful Mochi when they took her outside for some fun in the sun. She zooms around like a little race car and can even walk confidently through PetSmart! Truly, she just needs that special someone who will help her carry that confidence into every aspect of her life. Then came the miracle! A loving foster family stepped up to give Mochi a chance to flourish in a home environment. 💖 After a month, her transformation has been nothing short of remarkable! Mochi is now housetrained, learning to trust her crate, and guess what? She even cries when it's potty time! 🌼 She cuddles up with the 6-year-old daughter at night and has proven to be the perfect snuggle buddy. Can you imagine the warmth of snuggling with this adorable girl? It's simply priceless! 😍 Mochi absolutely adores her foster family's dog, and they snuggle and play like old friends. 🐶 She's also shown that she can coexist peacefully with cats, as noted during a recent groomer visit. However, Mochi does have a sensitive side; she can be nervous around strange men or boys, and would do best in a calm home that doesn't have a revolving door of guests. If you have frequent visitors, Mochi will definitely need a little responsible adjustment, such as being kenneled during those times. ✨ Here's what Mochi needs in her new, loving home: * A patient family willing to continue her crate training journey. * A calm environment without many visitors. * Commitment to ongoing obedience training to boost her self-confidence. * While a fenced yard isn't necessary, keep in mind Mochi can jump! 🏃‍♀️ Adopting Mochi means welcoming a loyal companion who will reward you with all the cuddles and loyalty you could ever dream of! 🌈 Her adoption fee? Waived! So why not let the spark of love ignite in your home? To get started, make sure to *apply through the Buddy App*! Together, you can help Mochi step into her new fantastic life! 🥰
