Moose is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He was left alone.

Moose is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 4-1/2-year-old, 81-pound, male, Chocolate Labrador Retriever mix.

Moose was a stray. He was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through FOCAS, Friends of County Animal Shelters. He was adopted then returned one month later.

His owners felt that they were not the right home for him. Moose was left home alone for up to 7 hours per day. At night he slept in bed with them.

He needs a home where there is not a lot of commotion, and his owners are willing to give Moose time to settle in.

The $145 adoption fee for Moose includes medical exam, neuter, up to date vaccinations, registered microchip, and a one-year license if her new home is in the jurisdiction of San Diego Humane Society.
