About Moose

Moose is a medium-sized, seven-year-old brindle and white mixed breed with a long list of nicknames at the shelter. He’s neutered, vaccinated, and up to date on all his care. Moose’s past is a little fuzzy, but he remembers knowing love, and he’s ready to start fresh in a home that gets him. He’s happiest as the only pet—other dogs and cats make him too stressed to relax. Moose is fully house trained and famous for his snuggling skills. He thrives on long walks, hikes, and destroying his soft toys with precision, but he’s always respectful of things that aren’t his. Sleeping in, snoring loudly, and collecting chew toys are a few of his favorite activities. Moose would likely do well with older kids who respect his space. If you want a loyal companion who enjoys a chilly Michigan morning walk as much as a slow day on the couch, he’s your guy. Born on March 28, Moose is an Aries known for his tenacity and independence.
