Support and Health

How much training will I need?

Needs ongoing support

Can I be left alone?

Potentially, once settled

Mochi doesn’t enjoy being left by himself and gets very stressed. Any new home will need to be prepared to do home alone training from scratch and understand it will be a slow process. With time, patience and training he has managed an hour, but he is looking for owners that will be home all the time to build this up.

Do I have any medical conditions?

Existing conditions

Mochi has current medical conditions, namely a previous fracture and knee surgery due to a luxating patellar, that will require consideration before this pet is rehomed. Our rehoming team will be able to give you further information if you apply to rehome them and you are a successful match.  

We would also advise that any medical conditions, be that historic or ongoing, are discussed with your own vet prior to taking them home. 

Due to the nature of the medical condition, a vet call with one of our onsite vets will be required before the pet goes home. 

Who I can live with

Can I live with dogs?

No

Can I live with cats?

No

Can I live with small pets?

No

Additional information

Mochi will bark at other dogs when out on a walk which he’s undergoing training for, and he would benefit from continuing it in his new home. With slow introductions to appropriate dogs he may have the potential to make some doggy friends much further in the future.

Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Mochi can live with children aged 11+.

Due to being a stray we are unsure if he has met any children previously, however as he is a little bit of nervous boy onsite we would recommend older children who are dog savvy and that are willing to respect his boundaries.

He has met a few older children since coming into us and has been friendly providing they understand his body language and react appropriately.

What type of environment would suit me?

Mochi will really enjoy having his own private, secure garden where he can train, play and run around securely. He shouldn’t have neighbouring dogs or fencing where he has a risk of seeing through it.
