Story
Meet Moo!DOB: 07/23/2023 Weight: 48lbs.Disposition: Confident, playful, and energetic boy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He loves to wrestle and romp with his playmates and thrives in the company of dogs who can match his lively energy. Moo is very people-oriented and enjoys being around his humans, showing off his charming and affectionate nature. He’s also a good listener, making him a fun and engaging companion who’s eager to connect and please.History: Moo arrived at Soi Dog Foundation in July 2025 with severe head injuries and nerve damage affecting his face and vision. His bloodwork also revealed anemia and thrombocytopenia caused by a tick-borne disease. In addition, Moo had a claw injury on his left forelimb and a small puncture wound on his head, both of which were treated with daily wound care and medication until fully healed. After being stabilized, he underwent surgery to repair his wounds and went on to make a strong, steady recovery.Today, Moo is a happy dog with a normal blood profile and no remaining signs of anisocoria. He does have mild facial nerve damage that affects his left eye reflex, but it does not impact his comfort or quality of life. While this may lead to dry eye in the future, he is currently doing very well and enjoying life.Best Home: Moo would thrive in an active home that can keep up with his playful, energetic nature. He’d do best with a family, couple or individual who enjoys daily activity, playtime, and continued training to keep his smart, eager-to-please mind engaged. A home with another playful, well-matched dog would be ideal, as he loves to wrestle and socialize with canine friends. He’d also be great with respectful, playful kids who can match his fun energy. Most importantly, Moo needs a home that will include him in daily life, give him structure, and love his confident, affectionate personality.Amazing Qualities: Confident, affectionate, playfulMoo is a bold and self-assured boy who brings confidence into every interaction. He’s deeply affectionate with people, always eager to connect and show love, and his playful spirit makes him a joy to be around. Whether he’s wrestling with dog friends or engaging with his humans, Moo’s fun-loving energy and charm shine through.If you're interested in meeting this dog, please visit our website to fill out an adoption application: www.thebarkinglot.net/adoptOur dogs are located in San Diego County, CA.
