Weight: 58 lbs., typical size for a male standard poodle
Breed: Apricot Standard Poodle
Age: 3 years
Personality: Affectionate and athletic personality. Friendly with dogs and people. He hasn't been around kids here in the USA, but we'd be surprised if he wasn't good with them. Playful but well behaved.
Coat: Short, hypoallergenic, non-shedding, but requires regular brushing, bathing and grooming every 6-8 weeks. His coat is a little rough now because of malnutrition, but once he gets on a good quality food, he is going to be GORGEOUS!
Training: Knows basic obedience commands: sit, down, shake, come
Potty trained: Yes, lifts his leg to pee outside, not completely 100% yet, but he just arrived a few days ago from S. Korea.
Health: Excellent, very healthy.
History: Rescued as a stray in S. Korea. Medium and large dogs have a very hard time finding homes there due to the size of living accommodations. They are kept as outside dogs. Mochi was sent to California to find a better life. He wants to be an indoor dog, with regular exercise, good-quality food and people to love him!
Fostered in: La Habra
Type of home: Active individual, couple or family. Standard poodles are athletic dogs who enjoy regular walks, running, fetch, dog parks and playing games. Mochi will need to be adopted by people who have the time to spend with him! He would be good with other pets in the family or by himself, as long as he has plenty of exercise and family time with you!
Crate trained: Yes
Good with Dogs: Yes
Good with Kids: Unknown, but probably yes
Good with Cats: Unknown
Adoption fee (non-refundable): $700
We are unpaid volunteers and a non-profit 501(c)3 charity. This fee helps to off-set fees we pay for rescuing the dog, including vet exam, grooming, food, rehabilitation, neuter, medications, fecal parasite test, heart worm test, vaccinations and transportation.
All dogs are fully vetted, desexed, tested for heartworm, microchipped, and up to date with vaccinations.
Our adoption process looks like this:
1. Adoption application review by WHDR board
2. Adoption application approval
3. Meet and greet
4. Home safety check
5. Final approval and adoption finalized
Our volunteers, donors and adopters mean the world to us! Without you, we couldn't do what we do - saving the lives of abused, neglected and abandoned dogs and providing them with a loving forever home.
