About Mocha

Meet Mocha! This sweet, petite, and absolutely adorable Dachshund is a 2-year-old ready for a fresh start and a loving family. Previously surrendered by her owner in South Texas, Mocha is eager to find the happy home every dog deserves. She has had some interaction with children and has shown friendliness during those moments. Although her experience with other dogs is limited, she has primarily spent time with her Shih Tzu brother. Mocha is already house trained, but she has only lived indoors and might need a little refresher on outdoor potty routines as she adjusts to a new environment. Her new family should be prepared to offer the patience and positive reinforcement she'll need during this transition. Set to arrive in Virginia on November 13th, Mocha will soon settle into foster care where we can learn more about her personality. Once she’s comfortable, we look forward to sharing more about this sweet girl. Interested in adopting Mocha? Don’t wait, as she’s already spayed and an excellent candidate for your family. Ready to make a difference? Your new best friend is just one click away.
