Miss Moxie is what would happen if you mixed together sunshine, squeaky toys, belly rubs, and the world's sweetest little goober into one absolutely adorable dog. At around 5 years old, this lab/pittie mix is the definition of a family girl. She's playful, affectionate, goofy, and SO full of love. Moxie has this soft, sweet personality that makes people instantly fall for her. She's the kind of dog who looks at you like you personally hung the moon... and then immediately flops onto her back demanding tummy rubs as payment. And let's be clear: this girl is a PROFESSIONAL at belly rubs. Moxie does not casually ask for affection. No no. She performs full dramatic fainting spells directly onto her back with all four paws in the air like a little spotted fainting goat. Belly exposed. Tail wagging. Tiny hopeful face. She's basically saying, "Excuse me, I would now like to schedule my spa appointment." And honestly? Nobody says no to her. Her foster says she absolutely loves toys and will proudly carry squeaky toys around the house chomping and squeaking away like it's her full-time career. She has this happy goofy energy that makes her feel like a permanent cartoon character. Everything is exciting to her. Everything is fun. Everything deserves a happy little tail wag.
Ideal Home
Moxie would love a home with a yard where she can zoom around, play with her dog friends, and live her best goofy little life. She would truly blossom with another playful dog buddy, but can also be a solo dog. She lives with a toddler and a 4-month-old baby in her foster home and does amazing, but she is definitely a playful girl, so tiny dog friends should be okay with a little goofy energy. Cats are not her thing, so no kitties for Miss Moxie.
Ongoing Health
Moxie does have some skin allergies, which technically makes her a special needs girl, but she truly doesn't let it slow her down one bit. She just needs a limited ingredient diet and regular vet care to help keep her skin comfy and healthy.
Training & Support
She's wonderful on leash, crate trained, treat motivated, and knows commands like sit and lay down.
