Mocha - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in South Burlington, Vermont

Easygoing, mellow, chill
Loving, affectionate, and kind
Spunky and spirited

Meet Mocha!

Mocha came into the care of HSCC after her family was no longer able to care for her. She was very lucky to have been well-cared for and in a devoted home for a very long time, and was extraordinarily loved. HSCC has enjoyed getting to know this charming girl - it's hard not to fall in love with Mocha!

At six years old, Mocha is definitely in the prime of her life. She is spunky, playful, and young-at-heart, and she loves getting to be outside in the grass and sunshine, catching up on all of her "pee-mail". When she isn't moseying and meandering around, Mocha can be found curled up next to her favorite humans (she makes a great hot water bottle), keeping your spot on the couch warm, and front-and-center of all the action. She is looking for a home that is happy to give her a safe and comfortable place to grow old in, and in return, she offers herself as a fuzzy and loving companion for life.

Don't let her age fool you - Mocha still has a lot of years left in her! She definitely has a spicy side, and has a history of not doing the best when sharing her space with other animals. While Mocha would not enjoy living with any other furry critters, she is a rockstar on walks, and greatly enjoys her neighborhood strolls. She's the go anywhere, do anything type - if you need a companion for errands, road trip buddy, or just someone to sit outside and catch a breeze with, Mocha's your girl! This warm-hearted soul has so much love to give, and is looking for her next family to share it with - could that be you?

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
