Moose

ABOUT THIS PET

Moose is the king of fetch. He chases the ball, brings it straight back, drops it, and waits for the next throw. He will fetch for over an hour without slowing down, and he walks more than a mile without pulling. He likes tennis balls, swimming, wading pools, and working for treats.

HOUSEHOLD FIT

Moose has lived with other dogs and plays well with the dogs at the shelter. On leash, he barks and reacts to passing dogs. He has not reacted to cats he has come across at FOHA, but he does chase squirrels and rabbits on walks. He is more comfortable with older teens and adults, and would do best in a home without young children.

TRAINING

Moose knows sit, down, paw, spin, and touch (nose to hand), and he is learning stay. He sits the moment he is asked and works eagerly for treats. He is one of FOHA’s Diamond Dogs, so FOHA can provide training support before and after adoption.

GOOD TO KNOW

Moose is protective of his food and his high-value chews. Thunderstorms frighten him. FOHA will go over all of his known behaviors with you before you take him home.

Moose is eligible for the FOHA Senior Care Plan that helps to cover any unexpected costs if they arise. FOHA waives the adoption fee on eligible pets and reimburses up to $1,500 in qualifying medical expenses or pet insurance premiums.

Moose is supported by a grant from Grey Muzzle Organization.
