Moose
Moose is a two year old all american mutt. He is a goofy, happy nut who loves to play with his brother dog Hunter and run around in the yard for hours with a jolly ball. He will do anything you ask in return for a treat, and is a pro cuddler during a movie on TV.
Moose is also scared. Of EVERYTHING. He has learned to live with things in the house. He is gotten used to the sound of the fridge door opening, the dryer buzzer, and cars driving by outside. New people and places are still very scary though. A new person in the house can be traumatizing to Moose. If slowly introduced, he will inch up to the new person and carefully take a treat. A fast movement by the treat giver means Moose running out of the room. In a new place, Moose will hide to avoid people. He doesn't understand that people think he is cute, he just thinks that they are scary. If people approach too quickly, he will bark, trying desperately to make them go away.
Moose is WONDERFUL with other dogs. He loves dogs of all shapes and sizes, especially little ones. He was the proud foster brother of a 16 pound beagle mix, and he loved her! He just doesn't understand the people world.
Moose is going to be spending several months living at Spirit, learning to enjoy life and the people that he meets.
