About Mocha

Meet Mocha. Mocha, also known as Mo Mo, is a handsome, energetic two-year-old Heeler mix weighing about 50 pounds. He needs an experienced foster home that can provide the activity, structure, and enrichment crucial for his well-being. Mocha is neutered and up to date on all his vaccinations. He’s housebroken, crate trained, and leash trained. He’s enjoyed attending dog parks and daycare where he played well with other dogs. Although he has been around children, he tends to play a bit roughly, so supervision is essential. Mocha would thrive with someone who can offer daily outdoor exercise, engaging activities, and clear boundaries. It's important to note that he hasn't been tested with cats and would do best in a feline-free environment unless otherwise determined by the rescue. His ideal foster home is active and familiar with managing a dog's needs during their adjustment period. Ready to make a difference in Mocha’s life? Apply to adopt!
