Foster Home Feedback
** No Cats
12/12/24 Building Volunteer Feedback: I took Mochi on a long car ride for a kennel break today. Mochi is such a sweetheart, I just adore her! She loves going for car rides and is a very well mannered little lady in the car!
12/9/24 Building Volunteer Feedback: Mochi is shy and scared in her big ol kennel just waiting for her forever family to help her feel secure and make sense of the world. Mochi can be left with toys and won't destroy them, but will play a great game of Operation if you sit with her. She won't eat the fuzz and will carefully remove that tricky sqeaker! She likes to catch the toys you toss to her and is getting more comfortable with scratches and snuggles. I think Mochi would do awesome in a home calmly snuggled into a pillow on the floor, just being around people. The sweet little dear will probably come out of her shell if just given the opportunity.
11/4/24 Building Volunteer Feedback: Mochi is currently staying at our shelter for about two weeks at the time of writing this little feedback blurb. While Mochi can take a moment to warm up to new people, but she is very modest about it. She is very treat motivated and appreciates a little snack when doing so. I can personally see her coming out of her shell quicker as everyday progresses, on an average day she will meet 5/6 new volunteers. Mochi is a very quiet dog in her kennel at the shelter; she just waits patiently for her turn for her walk with the volunteer, while the other dogs make themselves heard and seen.
As of now, Mochi is going to need slow introductions with other dogs and the routine of a new home. She spent 5 days or so at a volunteer's home on a break and was able to get some time with that volunteer's pack, otherwise she did very well gated-off and took it slowly. I would imagine Mochi would appreciate dogs with somewhat of her easy-going demeanor, vs dogs that want to rough house all day long.
As Mochi stays with us we are hopeful she will continue to progress, specifically if she gets into foster care. This particular dog is very tough to get to "know" at the shelter. Hopefully we can have some foster home feedback available at some point, but if not please apply to foster her. There will be lines of dogs much like Mochi just needing the safety and time of a foster home to thrive. Please consider bringing this sweetie into your home!
