Description
Posted Breed: Hound / Mixed. A PRETTY & SWEET GIRL: 5 years old / 49 lbs. and needs to lose a little weight Hi, I’m Jocelyn! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control & could not be more grateful for the love & good care I’m receiving. I am happy to be in a wonderful foster home while I wait for my furever family to find me! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I don’t like the dogs I’ve met at Mostly Mutts, so I’ll want to be your only dog. My foster says that now I only growl when off-leash dogs come running up to me. She says, ‘leave it’ or has me ‘sit’ and I’ve done well with that. I now do well when passing other leashed dogs on our walks, but I still don’t want to live with another dog. / I got along well with the dog savvy cat in the temp. foster home where I stayed when my regular foster was away. I gave him some sniffs & he hissed, but after a few days, we just went about our business & were calm around each other. I WILL chase cats that run from me and that won’t tell me “NO”, so it would need to be a dog savvy cat that will tell me to behave. If you have a kitty like that, let’s meet & see if we can be pals. / I met a nice boy & girl around 10 years old at Mostly Mutts & liked them. I also like the 3, 5 & 12-year old kids in my temp. foster home. I was gentle & enjoyed playing catch, fetch & tug as well as napping with them, so a home with kids around those ages could be a good fit for me & best no toddlers I could bump over. Let’s meet! • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I am a sweet, friendly girl with a gentle nature, who just needs to get to know you a little to feel comfortable with you. As pretty as I am playful, the volunteers love me & my corkscrew tail wiggles. The volunteers say that I’m a really nice dog. I have lost some weight, but I need to lose a little more, so I take about 15,000 fun steps a day with my foster over multiple walks. My foster mom says I am “a joy.” I am not an incessant barker but will give a little alert bark at new things I hear outside the house, as any good doggie would do. I tore up a tennis ball & stuffed bone, but left the squeaky parts so please make sure to check my toys and give me sturdy Nylabones. On rare occasions, I get curious to “surf” the counters but respond well to “off” so please keep food out of my reach & teach me the boundaries. / My energy level is 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I know the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ & ‘place’ commands. I also use proper door etiquette as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. I bet you could teach me even more. Occasionally, I tug a bit on my leash when we take a new route with new smells because I am so excited, but otherwise I am a nice loose leash walker. I have learned to be calm when I see squirrels, birds, rabbits or deer, but if one runs in front of me, I will pull. I respond well to the ‘leave it’ and ‘sit’ commands. / My crate manners have been good. My foster said I am fine to be left out in her bedroom where I just lie on the bed or look out the window. I have a blanket-covered crate left open that sometimes I use for naps. / My potty habits have been good on the shelter schedule & in my foster home. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I enjoy going for walks, playing with lots of toys & snuggling. I love to play & do zoomies in the play yard at the shelter, so a fenced yard where we can stretch our legs, lie in the sunshine & have fun would be great in my new home. I also like to play with Nylabones & tug toys. I really enjoy belly rubs, lying on the couch & looking out the window in my foster home. I enjoy healthy snacks like apples, blueberries, and watermelon. I’m a fan of car rides too so let’s go lots of places together, and I give good hugs – do you need a hug? / I don’t care for green beans, heavy rain, sudden loud noises, loud vehicles & nail gun sounds, but fireworks were okay. I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, walks & training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped & spayed. I need to lose a little weight, so I’m on a lower calorie food. I am looking for a wonderful family to love me for life! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
