MOKA

Hello! I am Moka! I am very handsome, quirky, and fun! I am looking for a special home after my previous owner passed away. Coming to the shelter was very scary for me and the staff think I wasn't really around a lot of people before now, so it made sense why it was overwhelming! I take a long time to warm up to new people, so I do need to go home with someone with dog experience. I would do best in a home with teens and up, no little kids for me. I go to dog playgroup here and enjoy making friends, but I can be picky too! So I need to meet any and all dogs I might spend time with in my forever home. I am not confident around strangers and struggle meeting new people overall, so it will take a few meet and greets for my new family to get to know me and earn my trust. I enjoy walks and prancing around in the yard, but also like to relax and hang out with my person too. If you have experience with fearful dogs or dogs who were not socialized properly as young pups, you are more than likely the best fit for me! I need a family willing to work with me on my fears and give me the comfort and confidence to be myself. Come meet me today! If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings. Dogs are individuals and have personality conflicts, just like us. Play groups do not guarantee that territorial or resource guarding issues will not surface in the home. While play groups do help us get to know the dog's better, once they are adopted their new environments and new relationships will influence their behavior in ways we cannot predict.
