Besides the Main Mascot Tripp, there’s one more dog you should know. This is Moose the Lab/Chesapeake Bay Retriever mix. Moose belongs to Afton, DogWatch of the Twin Cities’ marketing, sales and training specialist. Moose is a big guy, weighing in at over 100 pounds. And he’s full of energy.
His DogWatch fence stops him from running into the street to greet neighbors walking by with strollers, not to mention all the other dogs in the neighborhood. Instead, he does the next best thing – he sits in the driveway just watching.
Moose loves cuddling on the couch, chasing balls and eating socks. He’s a very strong swimmer and an even better eater. Moose is a big part of the family and loves going everywhere with his owners and his baby brother. While at the cabin, the BigLeash keeps him from straying too far.
Moosey hates fireworks and thunder, so July can be a rough month for him.
Besides Moosey, his nicknames include Moosh (thanks to the 1-year-old neighbor girl), Mimi-Siku (from “Jungle 2 Jungle”), Moomey and Meep Peep. If you meet him, be ready for a big kiss and some accidental tail collisions.
