d manage, so I missed out on some early socialization. But I’m learning every day and making great progress! Once I get to know you and decide you’re one of my people – you’re in for good! I just need a little time to settle in and build trust so we can become good friends. I got to spend some time in a temporary foster home and had a great time there! I was adopted for a short time, but it wasn’t the right fit, so I’m back at Mostly Mutts looking for a calmer type of home and family to live a good life with. I’m currently in the prison/foster training program off-site and learning a lot! Please inquire at 770-272-6888 to find out when I'm available to meet. • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I have lived with a lot of dogs and have decided that I no longer want to live with other dogs. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best 15+ who will be able to read my signals and give me time to feel at home. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I came in a scared and sensitive soul who’s learning that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. When I’m unsure, I might retreat to a corner or give a little growl - it’s just my way of saying I need a bit of space and time to feel safe. But once I know you’re my person, my heart opens up completely! I’ll show you my silly side with happy zoomies and gentle kisses. I’m all about trust and patience - go slowly with me at first, keep me safe so I don’t get startled and run off, and soon you’ll see what a loyal, loving friend I am. It took a bit longer with men in my temp. foster home, but I’ll be around men in the prison/foster training program, so stay tuned for more information about that. My temp. foster said I was a sweet dog, and I sure enjoyed my time there – it was a nice calm home which is what I like. / Energy Level: My energy level was 4-6 in my temp. foster home. It may start out a little lower until I feel comfortable. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program and have learned the ‘sit’ and ‘come’ commands so far and I look forward to learning more. / I’m doing well in my little room at Mostly Mutts, and I did well in a crate in my temp. foster home, too – I slept peacefully during the night. / I’m doing pretty well with my potty manners on the shelter schedule with a few accidents. I also did well in my temp. foster home on a good schedule. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love people once I know them, I’ll run around doing zoomies to show them how happy I am to see them! In my temp. foster home, I enjoyed being close to my person, lying in the sun and being out in the fenced yard with them as well as showing my fun ‘pounce’ and play style while running around. I’m sure we’ll find lots of other things we will enjoy doing together once I’ve settled into my new home. / I don’t care for other dogs, and I wouldn’t be happy if people rushed me into new situations or relationships, or if I was in a home that was busy or loud and I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, and training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I’m looking for a loving, calm and stable home where I’ll be cherished! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
