A little about me...
Moose is currently battling Myasthenia Gravis and Masticatory Muscle Myositis, autoimmune diseases that attack the muscular nerve junction and facial muscles responsible for chewing. Even with these diagnoses and symptoms he’s still the loving, cuddly, sweet boy he has always been.

Moose was also born deaf, but he is extremely intelligent and a very quick learner of sign language. His favorite signs are for belly rubs (aka play dead) and hide-n-seek.

Moose has always been a quirky pup. If he isn’t chasing his own tail around the yard or leading the pack on a long hike, he’s inquisitively waiting for a new trick to add to his repertoire from his owners or from his friends so he can learn to actually “dog”.

While the past month has been a drastic change for him, he has fought with resilience while maintaining his highly playful energy. He hopes soon he can return to playing fetch, hiking, and wrestling with his friends.

Moose hopes to be a spokesdog for dogs just like him so they can get the care they need and deserve to live long and fulfilling lives.
