Mocha is a 5-month-old Shepherd mix who we believe may have some Belgian Malinois in him — and if you know the breed, you know that means this boy is SMART. Like, scary smart. 😂 Mocha is not your average “couple walks a day” puppy. He’s energetic, highly intelligent, eager to learn, and thrives when he has structure, consistency, training, and a job to do. He would do best with an active home committed to continuing his training and keeping both his mind and body busy. If you are unfamiliar with working breeds, we strongly encourage doing some research beforehand to make sure he’s the right fit for your lifestyle. With that said… Mocha is also incredibly sweet, affectionate, and full of personality. He loves people, adores other dogs, and is always ready to play. He can be a little alpha with other pups at times and still doesn’t quite understand his own size, so continued guidance and boundaries will be important as he grows. He is crate trained, doing great with potty training, and is learning more every day. Mocha is truly the kind of dog that will bond deeply with his people and make an amazing companion for someone willing to put in the time and energy he deserves. This boy has so much potential — he just needs the right person to help him channel it. 🖤 --- To apply to adopt, please follow the steps for adoption on HalfwayThereRescue.com/Adoption-Process and apply directly here: https://fs26.formsite.com/htrnp/a2k3lsooud/index.html
