Meet Mo, a sweet and friendly young lady ready to bring joy and laughter into your life. Known for her friendly demeanor, Mo can light up any room with her goofy antics and playful spirit. She has a knack for making both people and animals feel at ease, quickly becoming the star wherever she goes.

Mo was the only dog in her previous home and entertained herself chasing squirrels & running the fence with the neighbor’s little dog. She loves everyone she meets including kids. She even seems cool with cats. She is a house trained, crate trained, and walks great on the leash.

Mo's sweet, funny nature makes her a delightful companion, full of personality and eager to please. If you're looking for a heartwarming addition to your family, Mo's boundless charm and affection make her the perfect choice.

Mo’s story: She was happily enjoying life with her elderly parents. Sadly, both needed to move to an assisted-living facility which doesn’t accept pets.
