He does need supervision in the yard or someone with a 6 ft fence:) He is dog and cat friendly, loves ball, frisbee and men! He knows all of his basic commands, sit, down, settle, off and a great recall! He would do great with a basic obedience class, as he just wants to please his person. He would do great with an active family, a canine friend and loves his structure! If you would like to meet this dog, please call Teri at 630-897-7454. The adoption fee is $275.

Meet Mochi! Mochi is a 45-pound red and white Aussie mix with the sweetest disposition and a serious love for snuggles. He's housebroken, crate trained, and an all-around easy companion.

Mochi is great with other dogs, good with kids, and happily entertains himself with toys and chews when needed. He loves being with his people and is truly an awesome dog ready to bring joy to his forever home. If you would like to meet this dog, please call Teri at 630-897-7454. The adoption fee is $275.
