Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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

We brought Mocha home three years ago from a farm in Iowa. While the other puppies hid, he came straight to us. He’s playful, loving, and always wants to be near his people. He enjoys being outside, going for walks, and getting lots of cuddles. He isn’t afraid of much—just the blow dryer at grooming. He grazes throughout the day, and he’ll follow you like a shadow. If my son and I are talking or laughing, he runs over to be part of it.

Rehoming him is a very hard decision, but our schedules have changed, and we’re moving to a smaller home with no yard. He’s been having more accidents, and as a first-time dog owner, I’m unsure how to retrain him without outdoor space. He also seems lonely; when we’ve watched my sister’s dog, he lights up and loves the companionship.

Mocha is smart and will learn quickly with the right support. Our only request is that if his new family can’t keep him in the future, they contact us first—we will always take him back.
