Moto

Meet Moto!
Moto is a sweet, low-riding pup with adorable basset hound legs and a heart full of love. He gets along great with other dogs and loves to follow his foster sibling around the yard-he's so short, he can even stroll right under her belly! Moto approaches every day with joyful enthusiasm, whether it's playing with the resident dog, going for walks around the neighborhood, or snuggling on the couch with his nose resting on his foster's shoulder. During the day, Moto is content to relax on his dog bed nearby while his foster works from home. He's crate-trained, sleeps peacefully through the night, and does great when left alone, either in the crate or without it. He knows the basic commands of "sit" and "down" and walks well on a leash with occasional reminders to slow down, though he does find squirrels very exciting. Once he gets to know you, Moto's expressive nature shines-his ears and voice tell you everything he's feeling. His ears perk straight up when he's excited, lay back on his head to listen when he walks ahead, and flop to the sides when he's relaxed. He gives wide, squeaky yawns in the morning, may whine if he's feeling lonely, yips excitement when it is time for a walk, and grunts when he is uncertain. He also has a deep, loud bark when he is alarmed or to alert that he needs to go out. That isn't frequent, but might not be ideal for apartment living. Moto is recovering from a limp, and his short legs make stairs a bit of a challenge. He manages the shorter porch steps with a little help but avoids long flights of stairs. Moto would thrive in a calm, loving home where he can enjoy companionship, cozy naps, regular walks, and playtime with a dog friend. If you're looking for a loyal, low-to-the-ground sweetheart who will fill your days with love and laughter, Moto would love to meet you!
