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 and play with her dog friends. She would also love a home that can provide her with another playful dog companion, as she truly blossoms around other dogs. She is a family girl and does amazing with toddlers and babies, and she has the vibe of a classic happy family dog. She is not a good fit for a home with cats.
Ongoing Health
Moxie has some skin allergies, which technically makes her a special needs girl. She needs a limited ingredient diet and regular vet care to help keep her skin comfortable and healthy.
Training & Support
Moxie is super smart and easy to live with. She's wonderful on leash, crate trained, treat motivated, and knows commands like sit and lay down.
