My story

🐾 Meet Moo — the Sweetest Little Sidekick Around! 🐾 
10 months • Male • Neutered • Pug Chi Mix If you’re looking for a gentle, people-loving pup who just wants to be someone’s loyal shadow, Moo might be your perfect match. This adorable pup is curious, affectionate, and happiest when he’s close to his humans. 💛 Personality Moo is a sweet, people-oriented little guy with a soft, affectionate nature. He’s still very puppy-like emotionally, eager to bond, eager to learn, and eager to be included. He can get a bit overwhelmed in busy environments, so he’s searching for a home that’s calm, predictable, and patient as he continues growing into the amazing companion he’s meant to be. 🐶 With Other Pets • Dogs: Great with small dogs! Moo is submissive, playful, and loves gentle roughhousing with doggy friends his size. • Cats: Curious • Kids: Wonderful with respectful older kiddos (ages 9–12). He’s gentle, tolerant, and loves being part of the family. 🚶‍♂️ Training & Home Life • Crate: Settles nicely, but may bark if crated while people are home • Housebreaking: About 75% there — he does best with a consistent potty schedule • Leash: Walks fine but prefers shorter strolls • Noise: May bark at unfamiliar sounds or when anxious • Stimulation: Can get overstimulated with lots of activity, so a quieter home is ideal 🎉 Moo’s Favorite Things • Playing with small dogs • Chew toys & his beloved big Nylabones • His snuggle blanket • Car rides • Lounging on the couch or bed 🏡 Why He’s Looking for a New Start Moo is a genuinely wonderful dog who has struggled with the fast pace of his current home. Too much activity makes him anxious, which affects his barking and housebreaking. His family loves him dearly but knows he’ll thrive in a calmer, lower-activity home with someone who can offer structure, consistency, and a reassuring environment. 💕 Ideal Home A quieter household, maybe with another small, friendly dog, and someone who enjoys a cuddly little sidekick. If you’re patient, loving, and ready to help Moo continue building confidence, he’ll reward you with endless affection and loyalty. If Moo sounds like your kind of buddy, apply now on azdawgz.org — he’s ready to meet his new best friend. 🐾💛

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Moo, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
