Mocha was rescued from a California shelter, set to be euthanized for space. She was saved by a lovely transporter with the help of us, escaping death's door. She survived, but not just once, twice. As the transporter was driving home with 9 dogs the night before Thanksgiving, she was hit head on from an SUV that was ejected into oncoming traffic by another driver, and collided with her. The transporter survived with 5 broken ribs, a broken sternum, wrist, and kneecap, abdominal contusion,bruising all over and a brain bleed. Thankfully she is alive and healing. Sadly, not all of the dogs survived. Three puppies were killed from the impact. Mocha lived, an incredible miracle girl. She is amazing, even after such a traumatic event.
Spayed.
She is a tiny sweetheart that is really shy. She likes familiarity and would do great with a routine and safe place. She is a submissive dog, and would get along with all types of other dogs, likely cats too. She is a dog that needs a person or family that is willing to let her have time to get out of her shy shell. She has been through a lot, and is scared of new things. She is not aggressive at all, but just melts. She will warm up and is super sweet once she trusts you and knows she is safe. With time she will be fantastic, just needs a patient and loving home where she can truly be herself.
If you have a current dog already, we will conduct introductions before adoption to make sure they are compatible. We recommend all of our dogs be trained, by the adopter and/or professionally, especially as puppies. Training makes everyone's life easier and more enjoyable, giving you a companion that is well behaved, safe, and mentally enriched. All adopters will receive a 50% discount at The Good Dog Yorktown for any of their training sessions.
