About Molinda

Molinda, affectionately known as "Momo," is a delightful three-year-old terrier mix, weighing in at thirteen pounds. With her sweet demeanor and cuddly nature, she lights up the room wherever she goes. She's incredibly sociable, greeting everyone with warmth and generosity, rolling over for belly rubs without hesitation. Momo thrives alongside other dogs, especially those her size or smaller, and her calm presence makes her a great fit for a home with a canine companion or as an only pet. Her gentle leadership shines through; when she arrived, other dogs quickly looked to her for guidance. Almost silent, Momo rarely barks and adapts well to being alone, although she treasures company. With a low to moderate energy level, her favorite activity involves curling up on the couch and soaking up affectionate pets and tunes sung in her honor. Though she isn't into toys, she's learning to navigate city life and appreciates a calm, supportive environment. She’s almost fully potty trained, knows basic commands like come and stay, and is improving on the leash. Momo would be best suited for a home where someone works from home part-time or more, in either an apartment or house setting. Her foster describes her as a "sweet little bean of joy and light," emphasizing her calm and affectionate nature. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
