Meet Mocha, a sweet, submissive, and affectionate 2-year-old Shepherd weighing 60 pounds. She forms strong bonds with her people, is friendly with men and women, and settles quickly once she feels safe. Fostered in Komoka, Ontario, Mocha is looking for an experienced, loving home where she can thrive.

Ideal Home

Mocha is active, outdoor-loving, and happiest with consistent access to a yard or large outdoor area where she can move, explore, and observe her surroundings. She has natural watchdog instincts and may bark at unfamiliar people or movement near her property, but she settles quickly and becomes friendly.

• Friendly with people she knows and trusts
• Positive interactions with familiar dogs, but best suited as the only dog in the home
• Listed as good with cats, though she has prey-drive and chasing tendencies; her foster cat is fearful of her
• Older children are preferred
• Best suited to an experienced home, ideally with shepherd or working-breed experience
• Not suited to a home expecting a very indoor-oriented dog

Ongoing Health

Mocha is spayed and vaccinated. No medical conditions are reported.

Training & Support

Mocha is house trained and walks well on a loose leash when focused. She knows sit, stay, touch, come, and drop it, with continued reinforcement needed. She takes redirection well but can become highly focused on her environment.
