Moxie is a 2 year old Papillon mix ready to charge up your life with love! Moxie was rescued from the shelter where he was surrendered for reasons unknown. We knew that this gorgeous boy deserved the best second chance, so we scooped him up and broke him out of his cage! Two baths later and he was ready for his photoshoot to find his forever family! Moxie weighs 13 pounds and has the most amazing fluffy coat ever. Ready for your next adventure? Adopt Moxie!
Moxie is the biggest love bug in the entire world and would love nothing more than a lifetime spent with his people. He’s content being wherever you are, lounging at your feet or by your side on the couch. He loves his toys and takes his daily routine of emptying out the toy box to make his artistic designs, much to the amusement of his foster mom. He has an amazing personality that makes it impossible not to fall head over heels in love with him. You’ll be showering him with kisses and treats in no time! He even picked up tug of war within the day which made the resident dog thrilled to have a buddy to romp around with. He is super playful and loves playing fetch and squeaky toy destruction. He can make it snow fluff if you give him long enough. Moxie is also very smart and has already picked up sit and using the dog door. This dude is ready for adventure and we promised to find him a family ready to show him the world! Moxie has such a unique coloring paired with the cutest little fox ears. He turns heads wherever he goes and boy does he know it! He struts down the sidewalk like it’s his own personal runway. Call the paw-parazzi so they can put him on the cover of fashion magazines!
Moxie wakes up between 7:30 and 9 AM (he’s happy tosleep in with you) and heads outside for a potty break. He has breakfast followed by more backyard play mixed with lounging out on the deck in the sunshine. He gets a few mini training sessions during the day and is very eager to please as long as you have tasty snacks for him! During the workday, he hangs out in the living room with his toys until he’s ready for his afternoon walk. He then has more playtime in the backyard with the resident dog until dinner at 6 PM. In the evening, he lounges in the living room until he goes out for one last potty break before bed at 10 PM in his crate.
Moxie currently lives with another dog and they get along well. He walks very well on a leash besides getting distracted by squirrels (dang pests)! Moxie loves humans of all ages and would be so happy to find his perfect loving family. If you’re ready to find your new best friend, you’ve found him with Moxie!
Moxie is an option for any home, regardless of prior dog owning experience. Kids should be over the age of 8.
