About dogs named Moira

The following are 9 profiles of dogs named Moira from our database of 26 dogs with the name Moira.

• “I love people but am not sure how I feel about other dogs. I need to show them I am the boss to get them to respect me which stresses my mom out. I love to chase my tennis balls. I wish my mom would take me outdoors again to throw the ball but we need a fenced in area with no dogs. My mom had to stop walking me so much a couple of months ago due to painful foot problems. I hope things get better soon.“

  — Lara R.

• “I like pets and to chase tennis balls. I like walks. I like people a lot but other dogs are threatening.“

  — Lara R.

• “My name is Moira and I am an energetic and excitable girl. I can run for hours without breaking a sweat, but I also like to sunbathe.“

  — Jack S.

• “I'm Moira and I'm a beautiful white german shepard husky mix (from what I know). I am SUPER sweet and very friendly with people, just a little cautious around strangers but I warm up quickly. I was in a shelter for half my life so I am cautious of others and tend to not love small spaces. I am very playful and can be mouthy while I play with other dogs. I love my mom and I love being able to romp//hop around freely. I am a big sniffer and very curious! And very excited to be the big puppy that I am.“

  — Emma H.

• “Moira is a Xoloitzcuintli (Mexican hairless). She is a champion show dogs and titled in many sports. High drive and doesn’t care for strange dogs. Mostly looking for sniff spots with water so I can practice before dock diving classes.“

  — Tina N.

• “I am precious sweet girl except when I am a tyrant who loves to destroy stuffies, chase animals, start a howl, or pick my brother Ryker.“

  — Graci Z.

• “Moira is very reactive to other dogs but loves people. My HOA does not allow fences so I need a safe place for her to run around and train.“

  — Katie H.

• “I'm Moira and I have anxiety which causes me to react to people and other dogs walking by my house. I am a sweetie but timid. I love walks but sometimes Im so excited I pull too hard.“

  — Ann K.

• “HELLO!! I’m a young dog with a lot to say(BARK!!). I’m highly driven to chase and herd so I do best when I play alone with adult humans. Herding a ball or playing fetch are my favorite ways to expend my rocket-fuel energy!! I’m sweet, sensitive, and curious. I love people and am aloof around new dogs.“
