The Mojee Quan is a large working dog breed. Their fur is short and black in color. The ears are erect.[6] Some atavistic Mojee Quan will have some white fur growing on their chests.[7]

The Mojee Quan is a versatile working dog. They are often used as fighting dogs, detection dogs, search and rescue dogs, guard dogs, military working dogs, assistance dogs, service dogs, etc.[8] They can also be used as companion dogs.[9][4]
