in need of a home! Thankfully, they took me in, and I am soaking up all the love and attention from the volunteers here and I heard them say that I’m now ready to find a family of my very own. I think that is the best news ever! Plan to come meet me soon and see if I am your new furry family member!
• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met some dogs recently at Mostly Mutts and although I didn’t want to play with them, I was interested and didn’t show any aggression. If you have a nice dog at home, let’s meet and see if we can be pals. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over.
• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a soft-hearted, gentle lady who lives for love and cuddles. If you sit with me, I’ll quietly place my paw in your hand—my way of saying, “please don’t stop petting me.” I adore being touched, brushed, and pampered. Bath time? No problem! I stand like a pro, enjoy the warm water, and even wag my tail during my towel-off and light brushing. After my little spa days, I trot happily back to my kennel, feeling fresh and proud. I can be a bit timid at first, but once I trust you, I walk calmly and politely on my leash. I’m a true house dog at heart—when we go outside, I take care of my business quickly so we can get back to the cozy indoors where I belong. I may be a senior, but my heart is young and full of love. I’m just looking for a quiet, warm home where I can be your loyal, gentle companion for the rest of my days. / Energy level: 4-6.
• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program and have already mastered the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘come’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands and I look forward to learning more. You know that old saying “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks?” Ha! Let’s continue my training together with the free lifetime training classes that Mostly Mutts offers for all their adopted dogs! / My crate manners have been good. / My potty manners have been good on the shelter schedule.
• LIKES/DISLIKES: I like lots of pets and spending time with my people—and maybe treats a little too much, so please help me lose some weight—let’s get active together! / I don’t like to spend too much time outside and like all dogs, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training.
• MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I have moderate tartar on my teeth, and bilateral chipped teeth not causing any pain right now, but my adoptive family should consult with their vet and consider a dental cleaning in the future. Since I'm a Dachshund mix, I naturally have a long back which is subject to injury, so please don't allow me to jump on and off furniture so we can keep me safe and healthy.
I am looking for a wonderful furever home with a loving family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
