Meet Mo! This soulful six-year-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever mix, weighing in at 75 pounds, has a gentle heart and a beautiful tricolor coat. He's a sweet snuggler who still believes laps are made for him, and while he's calm and low-energy indoors, Mo bonds deeply once he feels safe, becoming a loyal shadow to his favorite person. He's house-trained, crate-trained, and knows basic commands. His favorite activity is snuggling close and soaking up affection, making quiet evenings on the couch feel like the coziest place on Earth.
Ideal Home
Mo's heart beats a little faster in today's noisy world, and the hustle and bustle of city life have become too much for him. He needs a calm, structured environment in a quiet rural or suburban area, with a securely fenced yard. Mo needs to be the only pet in the home, as he has a strong prey drive and unfamiliar animals can stress him out. He would also thrive in a home without cats and would prefer fewer visitors.
Ongoing Health
Mo is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. He needs to avoid poultry due to allergies and has mild arthritis in his hind legs, though this doesn't stop him from enjoying a good cuddle.
Training & Support
Mo can become anxious and reactive in busy environments due to city living. He needs a guardian experienced with anxiety or reactivity in dogs, who uses positive reinforcement and has patience. Consistency and gentle companionship are key, and he'd do especially well with someone who works from home or has a predictable routine.
