My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

🐾 Meet Moose ( Formally Cadbury) – The Gentle Chocolate Dream 🐾
There’s something special about Moose. Maybe it’s the way he melts into your side for snuggles or the little happy grunts he makes when he leans against you for attention. Maybe it’s the way he’ll catch a toy tossed into the air with a spark of joy—only to return right back to being your perfect couch companion. Whatever it is, this sweet chocolate boy has a heart as rich and warm as his fur.
Moose is a 2- to 3-year-old, 71-pound lovebug who was found as a stray but hasn’t let that hard start keep him from embracing love and comfort. He’s dog-friendly and has been respectful and easygoing with an elderly beagle in his foster home. He’d likely enjoy a playful companion his own size—but honestly, he’s just as happy soaking up all the attention as an only dog.
He’s crate trained, house trained, and walks beautifully on a leash (except when he spots deer—then his playful instincts kick in!). Moose knows a few basic commands and is motivated by food and affection. While he may bark when new people approach, especially men, it only takes a moment for him to warm up and melt into a puddle of affection.
Moose has met children as young as 2 and done great around them. He especially loved spending time with a 13-year-old who visited for the weekend—snuggling, playing, and soaking up all the love. Because of his size and occasional bursts of playful energy, he’d be best suited to a home with kids over 6.
If you’re looking for a companion who will follow your lead—active when you’re up, curled beside you when you’re resting—Moose is your guy. He’s a laid-back, loyal snuggler with a gentle spirit and so much love to give.
✨ Moose is neutered, heartworm negative, up-to-date on preventatives, and ready to meet his forever family. Whether you're in a house with a yard or a cozy apartment, Moose will thrive as long as he has your love.
