The world is a big place for a little puppy like me.

At just eight weeks old, everything seems enormous and mysterious.

I’m Mothra, from the Monster Movie litter at the Dire Wolf Project, and yesterday, I embarked on my biggest adventure yet—the summer forest.

As the sun filtered through the trees, it cast dappled shadows on the ground.

The scent of pine and earth filled my nose, and I felt a twinge of excitement mixed with apprehension.

The tall grasses waved gently in the breeze, and I could hear the chirping of birds and the rustling of small creatures in the underbrush.

I took a cautious step forward, my paws sinking slightly into the soft ground.

The world is so big, and I am so small.

My heart pounded as I ventured deeper into the forest, my ears on alert and my nose twitching.

A grasshopper leaped out from the grass, startling me.

I jumped back, my tail tucked between my legs.

But curiosity got the better of me, so I crept forward again, watching as the grasshopper hopped away.

I realized grasshoppers aren’t so scary after all.

With each step, my confidence grew.

I followed the scent of wildflowers and the sound of a chittering squirrel.

The forest was alive with wonders.

I wanted to bravely explore it just like my brothers and sisters.

I found a patch of sunlight and rolled onto my back, feeling the warmth on my belly.

It was a small moment of pure joy, and I let out a happy yawn.

I continued my journey, sniffing at mushrooms and pawing at fallen pinecones.

The trees seemed to whisper secrets as the soft wind blew through their branches.

I felt a sense of peace and belonging here, surrounded by nature’s beauty.

I am not the leader of the pack, but in this moment, I didn’t need to be because, the forest welcomed me just as I am.

As the sun began casting a golden glow over everything, I made my way back to the clearing where Jennifer, my best human friend, was waiting on her bench overlooking the meadow.

Her smile was warm and welcoming.

I bounded over to her, my tail wagging furiously.

She lifted me up into the air and set me on her lap.

I licked her face in delight, trying to tell her about all the wonderful things I had seen and smelled.

“Did you have a good day, Mothra?” Jennifer asked, her voice gentle and kind.

I nuzzled against her, giving her more kisses and hugs.

I wanted her to know how thankful I was for this adventure, for letting me explore the big, wide world and for always helping me feel safe and loved.

Jennifer stroked my fur, and I settled into her lap, feeling content.

The forest is a magical place.

I discovered that even though I am not the bravest or the most outgoing puppy, I can still find my own way and enjoy all that life has to offer.

With a human companion by my side, I know that I can face any adventure, big or small.

Mothra is the last puppy for sale from the Monster Movie litter.

She received a perfect temperament score and is an amazing puppy with a big heart.

Mothra is not a leader, but a willing follower.

She isn’t teeming with exuberant confidence, but that initial caution makes for a very intuitive and aware soul that won’t charge forward without finding out if there is danger first.

Mothra is highly intelligent and very loving and affectionate.

She prefers a quiet, peaceful, gentle home that can understand her emotions and guide her to be brave.

With positive experiences that build her up and allow her to realize she can do it on her own, she will blossom into a fantastic dog with all the perfect parts of a world-renowned large breed family companion dog.

Mothra is a giant tri-gold female with a medium coat and a black mask.

And just like her beautiful personality, she hopes a family will snatch her up and make her their own.

The DireWolf Express leaves the morning of August 9th, 2024.

That means there are only two more days to claim this puppy as your own if you want to take advantage of the cross-country trip.

If you are on the fence, for goodness sakes, reply to this email so we can find out if she will be right for your family.

I can’t help if you don’t let me know.
