About Moira

Moira is a young, medium-sized pug and bulldog mix who’s still finding her confidence. She first arrived at the rescue feeling uncertain, but with a little help from her dog friends—especially one named Drake—she warmed up fast. Moira’s body language makes it easy to tell when she feels safe: she goes from shy to full-body wiggles and hops into laps, eager to meet everyone as a friend. She enjoys playing with other dogs, though her play style can get loud. If things get too rowdy, she responds quickly and adjusts her behavior. Though new environments make her pause, another confident dog will help ease her nerves. She isn’t yet house trained, so her future family should be ready to set a consistent routine and be patient early on. Moira is smart, and with a bit of guidance, she’ll catch on quickly. Her solid 30-35 lb build means she’s sturdy, but still perfectly sized for most households. Moira will be ready for adoption soon. Adopters must be able to meet her in Indianapolis, IN—no shipping or transport is available. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
