Mo – “a” street animal clinic Ambassador
Mo grew up on the streets of Medford. He spent many unfortunate nights without his dinner or a warm lap to sleep on. In August of 2010, Mo booked a room at the Jackson County Animal Shelter where he met many friends, and always had his meals delivered to him. He really enjoyed staying at the shelter but one month later he decided he was ready to move on so he chose to go home with Sidney and Shawna to the “a” street animal clinic. Mo enjoys playing with puppies, sleeping in his rocking chair, consoling hospitalized patients, and eating.
