About Mo

Meet Mo! Mo is a soulful six-year-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever mix looking for a loving home in Amherst, MA. With his gentle heart and striking tricolor coat, he’s the perfect companion for someone who values peace and quiet. Weighing in at 75 pounds, Mo believes laps were made for him! Calm and low-energy indoors, he forms strong bonds, especially with women, and becomes a loyal shadow once he feels safe. Mo is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows basic commands like sit, stay, and come. His favorite thing to do? Snuggle up close and soak in the affection. Quiet evenings on the couch are his idea of bliss. Since moving to a busy city apartment, the hustle and bustle has proven overwhelming for him. City walks filled with strangers and unexpected noises make Mo anxious and reactive. He thrives best in a structured, calm environment, ideally in a quiet rural or suburban area where he can enjoy the outdoors without stressors. Ideally, Mo needs to be the only pet in the home due to his strong prey drive. He’s selective about other dogs and does not get along with cats, making him better suited for a home without frequent visitors. A guardian experienced with anxious dogs, who utilizes positive reinforcement and has a steady routine, will help Mo rebuild his confidence. He gives back tenfold with loyalty and affection and enjoys cuddling beside his favorite human. Mo is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and needs to avoid poultry due to allergies. Despite having mild arthritis in his hind legs, he still enjoys close cuddles. Are you the calm and compassionate guardian ready to give Mo the peaceful home he needs? Your new best friend is just one click away.
