Description:
Fun, playful, clownish, and smart--the words that seem to describe Moose. This super cute fella was picked up by the Burlington Police Department and brought to BAS. He's definitely not a criminal and did nothing wrong, he was just a lost pup who didn't find his way back home. Moose is at least 5 years old and knows some basic commands. He has a happy and friendly personality, and he's ready to bring much laughter, happiness, and love to a lucky person or family's life. Moose did test positive for heartworm but we will be taking care of the treatment, so no worries! Moose is hoping to meet you today, so come visit us soon!Dog Day Out, 8/1/24:We went to Cates Farm Trail and Cedarock Park to visit the goats. We also got a pup cup from Starbucks and played outside. Moose walks well on leash, is treat motivated, and was very relaxed in the car. He did not give me a hard time at all.Dog Day Out, 6/21/24:I took Moose on a nice walk through Willowbrook Arboretum. He walked nicely on a leash. He pulled on the leash a bit but thatâs only because he wanted to sniff ALL THE THINGS! Afterwards, we got a pup cup, which he loved. He was a great car traveler, either standing in the back seat to look out the window or lying quietly. He enjoyed hanging out at my house and did not react to my other dog or cats. He took treats gently from my hand and had no accidents in the house. Moose especially loved chewing on his toy and trying to get to the treats hidden inside! If you are looking for a grown, more relaxed dog who enjoys hanging out with his human/s, then Moose is perfect for you!Dog Day Out, 5/4/24:It was a rainy day when Moose had his outing, so we sat under some shade and played with so many toys. We took a stroll around Elon's campus, and Moose was happy to meet so many new human friends. He spent most of his time chewing on awesome toys, running around, and meeting new friends. Moose was such a sweet boy! He was so friendly with every single person he met, and gave the biggest puppy eyes when he did not get pets from someone who walked by. He was very well adjusted to his new company of the day, and was strutting around campus with his beloved toy in his mouth. Moose is young at heart and would do so well in any home he is given the opportunity to thrive in. He loves butt scratches and sitting with his toys. Dog Day Out, 4/26/24:Moose was a wonderful hiking partner! He pulled a bit at first, but caught on quickly to walking well! Heâs super smart, has 'sit' down super well, and loves to give you his paw! He was an absolute sweetheart and loves to lean on you and get good rubs! I hope this wonderful boy finds a good home soon! Dog Day Out, 4/5/24:We started the day with some Starbucks--Moose loved his pup cup. Then we went to Cedarock Park and went on the Waterfall Trail and the Green Trail they have. Then we went to McDonaldâs where he enjoyed some fries. Moose was fantastic, didnât bark, didnât pull--very gentle. On our hike we bumped into a couple of dogs and he wanted nothing to do with them. I have a 7 month old; she wasnât with us the whole time but when she was, he paid little attention to her. He also knows tricks: sit and shake with both paws--very clever. If I could, Iâd adopt this lovely guy in a heart beat.
