My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

*Currently fostered in Houston Texas, available for out of state adoptions via rescue transportation. Video meet and greet available prior to commitment*
This dog is a collaborative effort between Moka's Mission and Houston Chow Chow Connection.

Mocha is a fluffy mixed pup just eager to find her new lease in life. She was rescued from a kill shelter in Texas just moments before being euthanized. She is believed to be around 4 years old, and based on behaviors definitely has GSD, Chow Chow, and even possibly husky mixed in her as well. Current weight around 65, 70 lbs.

Mocha is a smiling, eager to please, extremely intelligent pup who clearly has been desperate for reaching a potential that was never offered to her prior. She loves to play with toys now, ( was unfamiliar with on arrival) and can be quirky, and vocal during her playful bouts. A game of tug which result in some head pats is her favorite. She also is very smart, and when given attention and motivation is quick to learn. She already knows several basic commands including sit, shake, kennel, wait, settle, and leave it. She is extremely versatile and once she trusts you, will give you her best. If you want to go hiking or exercise, she is all about it. If you want a pup to relax in the home and enjoy a movie day, she is ready! She loves to curl up on the couch or at your feet when it's time to settle down, but when it's time to go she is the first one to be there and ready for you. She also loves to keep you company while you do the most menial house chore's such as laundry or dishes.

Mocha clearly was kept away from other dogs and animals when she was owned previously, so we do think she'd be best as an only pup. Proper continued socialization training would be required in order for her to eventually be able to share space with other dogs, but she would need to be socialized as an only dog first before considering adding another in. She clearly has a desire to want to know other dogs and can walk by them and flirt while on leash just fine during walks. However, she hasn't had enough time and proper playmates to engage in playtime at present without being rough. Unfortunately, she is not ok with cats, which is to be expected of the breeds she possesses.

Mocha is fully vetted meaning she is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped and on monthly prevention for flea, tick, and heartworm. Her adoption fee and transport is dependent on services used.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is quick and simple, taking approximately only 3-5 days to complete once started. Our requirements are as follows:
Must be 21 yrs or older to apply
All other pets must be current on vetting and be spayed/neutered
All animals must be living indoors unless they are farmlife.
Our dogs must be kept on a good quality food to preserve their quality of life
All dogs must be kept on preventatives unless otherwise specified by your veterinarian

Adoption Process:
First you fill out our application, and then we contact your veterinarian and references while you set up a time to speak directly with the foster that cares for the dog on a daily basis and can give clear, concise information on said dog. We offer out of state adopters a chance to meet their dogs via video such as Zoom and if decided upon, we finalize with the adoption fee and contract. Once those are in hand, we schedule a drop off time via rescue transport for you and your new pet to start life together!

Our adoption center is located in Willis Tx at our two acre property, however, we do allow and strongly encourage for out of state adoptions! All visitors must book an appointment prior to coming to our facility as it is not open to the public.

More about this rescue

We are dedicated to preventing the abandonment and euthanasia of dogs by rehabilitation and behavior modification while providing education to rescues and the public. We teach rescues and pet owners the behavioral knowledge to prevent and manage unwanted canine behaviors. Providing this knowledge will lower the number of re-homed and abandoned dogs by giving pet owners the knowledge to prevent unwanted behavior from occurring.

We work diligently to understand our dogs behavior to help place them in the best possible home that they can call forever.
