Make Way for Moira

Pet of the Week for September 20, 2025

Say hello to Moira, a wonderfully sweet and gentle 1-year-old who’s ready to find her quiet sanctuary. She’s a calm presence who loves nothing more than to lounge around and soak up time with her favorite people.

Moira is a sensitive soul who will need a bit of patience and understanding to truly let her guard down and reveal her more playful side. Check out this video of her enjoying a walk and this cute one of this bright girl quickly solving a puzzle (below) to get to her treats.

This house-trained good girl would thrive in a peaceful, balanced home where she can grow at her own speed, and can be the solo pup of your dreams.

If a calm, loving friend who just needs a little time is what you’re looking for, Moira could be your perfect match. You can make her acquaintance at Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter, 1590 Fortmann Way, during open hours—Wednesday and Thursday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Please note that nap time for the animals is 1 to 2 p.m. and the last meet time is one hour before closing.
