came to Mostly Mutts as a 10-week-old puppy, and that’s when they discovered I have a serious heart condition. I’ll need lifelong care, including multiple daily medications and EKGs a few times a year, which will come with a significant financial commitment. I’m hoping to find a special home with someone experienced in canine heart conditions. The good news is that my condition doesn’t get me down — I’m full of puppy spirit and can’t wait to meet the family that’s meant for me! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I get along very well with the dogs in my foster home. I would likely enjoy another dog to play with in my new home, so if you have a nice doggie who would like a puppy friend, let’s meet! / I met 2 kitties in my former foster home and wanted to play with them. I was only 2 months old at the time, and I haven’t been around kitties since then, but my current foster of 5 months thinks I may be a bit too playful for kitties. / I like the teen kids I’ve met in my foster home and think older kids like this will be best for me due to my heart condition, so let’s meet! • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a happy-go-lucky pup with a sweet, lovable personality and a playful spirit that shines brightest when I’m around people. I may not be much of a cuddler, and at times I’m a loner, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love being near you — I just like to enjoy your company in my own way. I’ve got the usual puppy energy, but because of my heart condition, I’d like a calmer home where I can play and explore without too much overexcitement. My foster says I have a great personality and an easygoing charm, and I think once you meet me, you’ll see what a special little pup I am. / My energy level in my foster home is quite high at 6-8. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I’m looking for a family that will teach me everything I need to know to grow up and become a wonderful adult dog — so get ready for some training with your new best friend. I’m a pretty bright girl and already know the ‘sit’, ‘outside’ and ‘lie down’ commands. I bet you can teach me even more! / My crate manners are excellent in my foster home. / Potty training is a bit of a challenge for me right now, mostly because my medications make me need to go number one a lot. I do know when I’ve had an accident, but I just can’t always hold it — especially first thing in the morning, when I might need a quick carry outside to avoid leaving a trail. So, know that there will be accidents and let’s work together to make them as few as possible. Because of my frequent need to go out to potty, a stay-at-home or work-from-home family member is needed. • LIKES/DISLIKES: It’s hard to pick just one favorite, because as a happy-go-lucky pup, I love so many things — people, toys to play with and chew on, and soaking up a little sunshine outside for a short period of time with my family! I’m sure we’ll discover even more things we love doing together! / My foster says I still get startled by things that are new to me. Kibble in a metal bowl is suspect to me — lol. Metal bowls, beef chewies because they make me vomit, and loud noises — I’m not a fan of. Otherwise, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, light exercise and training. • MEDICAL: I’m current on my annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I have an appointment at UGA in September 2025 to see how/if the meds. are working and Mostly Mutts will cover the cost of this appointment. If you’re interested in me and learning more about my condition and medications, please inquire. I’m looking for a home with a loving family who understands my medical needs for a great life. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
