Moose is white with adorable big black spots and one ear floppier than the other. He has short fur and is a very low shedder.

Moose is a dog-lovers dog! He enjoys chew toys and fetch. Moose would do well with a family wanting to add another dog to their pack if they are willing to spend the time to slowly transition him. He would also do very well as an only dog, where he may be more relaxed and focus on his people. Although he has been fine living in an apartment, he definitely lets us know when the neighbors are coming and going, and is sensitive to noises outside. So he might do best in a detached home. Moose would likely do well with older kids, although we are still working on his mouthiness and nipping. Moose has learned to be more polite with other dogs and he LOVES playing with them, although he still gets very excited when meeting new friends.

Moose also loves being outside doing things with his family and is better behaved when he gets to come along on the adventures rather than staying at home. He walks almost perfectly on leash and loves to go on walks around the neighborhood with his people. We think he is from a herding breed.
