Corgis are very active and energetic. They have a strong desire to please and should receive both physical and mental exercise regularly. Outside Wales, corgis have been made popular by Queen Elizabeth II who has at least four in her retinue at all times. Her first corgi was called Susan. She currently keeps two corgis and two Dorgis (corgi/dachshund cross). Some portraits of Queen Elizabeth II include a corgi.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentA well-conditioned Boxer is an awesome sight. A male can stand as high as 25 inches at the shoulder, females a little shorter. Their muscles ripple beneath their short, tight-fitting coat. The dark brown eyes and wrinkled forehead give the face an alert, curious look. Boxers move like the athletes they’re named for: smooth and graceful, but powerful.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommenthe Pug’s motto is the Latin phrase "multum in parvo" (“a lot in a little”)—a perfect description of this small but muscular breed. They come in three colors: silver or apricot-fawn with a black face mask, or all black. The large round head, the big, sparkling eyes, and the wrinkled brow give Pugs a range of human-like expressions—surprise, happiness, sorrow, curiosity—that have delighted owners for centuries.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentGenerally considered dogdom's finest all-purpose workers, GSDs are large, agile, muscular dogs of noble spirit and high intelligence. For such deep-chested, solid dogs, they move quickly with great nimbleness afoot. The GSD's natural gait is a free-and-easy trot, but when duty calls they can turn it up a notch or two and reach great speeds. Standing as high as 26 inches at the shoulder and built like a brick doghouse, the GSD when viewed in outline presents a picture of smooth, graceful curves rather than angles.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentChances are you’ve already met a Dachshund — how can you miss them? With their long, low body, short little legs, velvety ears, and vigilant expression, Dachsies are one of the most recognizable breeds around. They come in two sizes: standard (about 16 to 32 pounds) and miniature (11 pounds and under), and three coat types. So many combos to love! Because of their long back, don’t allow them to jump from heights; even furniture may be too high.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentThe Pit Bull Terrier was created by breeding bulldogs and terriers together to produce a dog that combined the gameness and agility of the terrier with the strength of the bulldog. A Pit bull's genetic make up was developed so it would be a good fighting dog. However, this genetic disposition does not mean that all Pit bulls are aggressive or that they are prone to attacking other animals. Pit bulls require the same amount of socialization training as other dogs during puppy-hood, possibly more. Like any dog, a Pit bull that is well socialized is less likely to attack when it feels threatened.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentLabrador Retrievers are the most popular dog breed in the United States. Called Labs for short, people can’t get enough of their charm and lovability. Labs are also very altruistic. Your good-hearted friend who likes to help the elderly cross the street? They’ve got nothing on a Lab. These dogs are gentle, intelligent, and easy to train, making them excellent guide dogs for the blind, loyal members of search-and-rescue teams, and faithful K-9 officers.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentThe Chihuahua is a saucy little hot tamale and not just because of his association with a certain fast-food Mexican restaurant. He's renowned for being the world's smallest dog, but he may well have the world's biggest personality stashed inside that tiny body. Fun loving and busy, Chihuahuas like nothing better than to be close to their people.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentDo you know the Bulldog is the official mascot of the United States Marine Corps, and thirty-nine American universities use a Bulldog as their mascot? This friendly, gregarious, and willful breed is quite impressive, huh? he Bulldog is among dogdom's most easily recognized citizens: The loose skin of the head, furrowed brow, pushed-in nose, small ears, undershot jaw with hanging chops on either side, and the distinctive rolling gait all scream “I'm a Bulldog!” from a block away. The Bulldog coat, seen in a variety of colors and patterns, is short, smooth, and glossy. The sum of these parts is a thick-set, low-slung, well-muscled bruiser whose distinctive "sourmug" face has become the universal symbol of courage and tenacity.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentt’s not surprising that Golden Retrievers are one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States. Along with being exuberant and friendly, they are strong dogs and hard workers. Goldens are good at whatever they do, be it hunting, serving as guide dogs, working search-and-rescue, or being devoted companions. Golden Retriever ranks fourth following the Border Collie, Poodle, and German Shepherd – as one of the brightest dogs ranked by obedience-command trainability. Though they are serious about their work, they also enjoy being downright silly!

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentMaltese are extremely lively, playful, affectionate, fearless, gentle, intelligent and sweet-tempered. They adore humans, and always prefer to stay near them. So much love in such a small body! Maltese are toy dogs weighing less than seven pounds, covered by a long, silky coat. Beneath that all-white mantle is a compact body moving with a smooth, effortless gait. The overall picture depicts free-flowing elegance and balance. The Maltese face—with its big, dark eyes and black gumdrop nose—has been enchanting owners since the Bible was a work in progress. Don’t let the showy looks fool you: These are hearty, adaptable pets. It takes a whole lot of dog to survive three millennia.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveComment"Dog people" and "Cat people" really do have different personalities, according to a new study. People who said they were dog lovers in the study tended to be more lively -- meaning they were more energetic and outgoing -- and also tended to follow rules closely. Cat lovers, on the other hand, were more introverted, more open-minded and more sensitive than dog lovers. Cat people also tended to be non-conformists, preferring to be expedient rather than follow the rules.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommenthis affectionate and playful breed—known for its wrinkly, smushy face and bat-like ears—is a great companion for single pet parents as well as families with young children. They need little exercise and grooming and are incredibly loyal to their people. Because of their somewhat stubborn nature, they require a bit of patience during training but are incredibly intelligent and eager to please.

MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentBostons are compact, short-tailed, well-balanced little dogs weighing no more than 25 pounds. The breed is famous for its “tuxedo” coat: white and either black, brindle (a dark striped pattern), or seal (dark brown). The muzzle is short and the eyes are large, dark, and round, giving Bostons a kind and intelligent expression that can melt the coldest heart.
26 Days of Mochi & Jolie - Day 1
MoJo Events, Product Product, What We LoveCommentInspired by "25 Days of Christmas", we are launching a special series of our own - "26 Days of Mochi & Jolie". With all of our love, we have been focusing on designing and creating Jewelry and Watch pieces for dog and cat lovers throughout this year. We devoted the full 2014 to our most loyal, selfless 4 legged companions and no matter what the future holds for us, we want them to know they will always be loved and treasured, and they are family forever.
Let's start the Day 1 of "26 Days of Mochi & Jolie" - Beagle! Beagle is intelligent, amiable, determined, and gentle. In the United States the Beagle ranked 4th most popular breed in both 2012 and 2013. Not only are Beagles excellent hunting dogs and loyal companions, they are also happy-go-lucky, funny, and—thanks to their pleading expression—cute. They were bred to hunt in packs, so they enjoy the company of other dogs and of people as well. Beagles love to follow their noses, which can sometimes get them into sticky situations. These dogs are solid, sturdy, and fairly easy to care for, but they do need to run around and let off steam.

30 Days of Thanks to Our Fur Babies
What We LoveCommentFrom this November 1st, we started a daily series we called "30 Days of Thanks to Our Fur Babies". We know our babies love us and we love them too, but how much have we learned or appreciated from them? Everyday we did a little "soul" searching and realized we have actually learned a lot from our pups. They really have changed our lives and made us a better person, less selfish and more giving. It is such a heartwarming and rejuvenating experience for us and we will treasure it forever.
