About Mooey

Mooey is an 8-year-old female Pocket Pittie on the lookout for a loving home. She came to us as a stray with her pup, never to be reclaimed, and has quickly stolen the hearts of everyone here. Mooey is laid back, cuddly, and embodies the essence of a true sweetheart. Despite her compact size, she believes she’s a lap dog and loves being carried around! This lovely girl has faced some challenges; she is blind in one eye and has a slight hitch in her step, a reminder of her past. This isn't causing her pain, as our vet has confirmed she's in good health overall. Mooey has also been a victim of past cruelty, having a few pellets lodged in her from an old injury, but they are not affecting her now. Mooey is great with other dogs, whether big or small, and is likely indifferent to cats. She takes her time on walks, but it's just her easy-going nature shining through. The ideal family for Mooey will enjoy quiet evenings with her snuggled up close. She comes with her vet care, including vaccinations and a microchip. Your new best friend is waiting for you!
