My story

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

Mochi is a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix weighing approximately 80 pounds of loyalty, affection, and thoughtful charm. He’s a wonderful balance of active adventure buddy and relaxed couch companion, happy to join you for a walk, hike, or outing and just as content settling in at home afterward.

 

Mochi has a sweet, steady temperament and truly loves people. He bonds deeply with his humans and thrives on connection, attention, and shared routines. He does well with kids and enjoys being part of a household where he can feel included and valued.

 

He has completed professional board-and-train, where he learned important household manners and structure. One of his biggest accomplishments has been learning to feel calm and secure in a crate, which he now views as a safe and comfortable space. This foundation helps him transition smoothly into home life and makes him an easier companion to live with.

 

Mochi is fully house-trained and well-mannered in the home. He is eager to please, enjoys having a job or task to focus on, and responds well to clear expectations and consistency. His intelligence and desire to work with his person make him both rewarding and fun to train and live with.

 

His story began when he was found living on an uncleared lot in Old East Dallas. Thanks to the care and commitment of his foster family, Mochi has made a full transformation from a street dog into a loving, affectionate companion who enjoys the comforts of home life.

 

One of Mochi’s endearing quirks is his love for string cheese, which earned him the nickname “Mocheezy.”

 

Important to know: Mochi would do best in a single-pet home. He prefers space from other dogs when out and about, and can be strong on leash if he notices them. Mochi is happiest when he can focus on his person and form a close, one-on-one bond.

 

If you’re looking for a devoted companion who is affectionate, intelligent, and ready to be a true partner in life, Mochi is eager to find his forever home.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in the life-saving experience of adopting a dog!

Filling out our application does not guarantee that you will be approved to adopt one of our dogs. We will conduct a home visit and reference check as part of our application screening. We reserve the right to refuse any application.

The minimum age for adopting from our program is 21 years old. You must agree to take your new pet to your veterinarian for a general wellness check within 4 weeks of the dog joining your family. You must also agree to keep your new pet current on vaccinations and monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention.

Applications are processed on a first come, first serve basis, however the dog will be placed with the applicant that can provide the best possible situation for his/her needs.

Our adoption fee is $250 which ensures that the pet has had a spay/neuter surgery, a microchip and age-appropriate vaccinations. The adoption fee is due the day the dog is placed into your home.

Please know that Duck Team 6 strives to achieve the most successful match for both dog and prospective family. All adoptions have a 2 week trial period in which your adoption fee would be refunded if it turns out the dog is not a good fit for your family within that time period.
