What is your dog's breed and age?
Mochi, 4 years

How has your dog impacted your life or the lives of others?
My daughter was in 5th grade remotely due to the pandemic. Our previous dog had passed away a few years prior. Being remote amplified her wish for another pet (don't tell the fish that he wasn't enough!). My husband who had been against getting another dog suddenly changed his mind. Before we knew it, there were three little tiny goldens at our door.

Mochi kept climbing into my daughter's lap, so we knew he was the one.

He made life during the remote learning fun for her, and brightens our day everyday. He will drop anything and run to find my daughter for me if I ask him to, excitedly licking her face and digging her out when she hides under blankets. When she is too good at hide and seek he helps me win.

I can't imagine life without him and we are so thankful to have him in our home.

How did your dog become a part of your family?
He fell in love with my daughter who really wanted a dog to hang out with while she was in remote learning.
