DOC - ROTTWEILER / HOUND / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Rottweiler / Hound / Mixed. LOOKING FOR A GOOD LEADER: Approx. 1 year old / Approx. 61 lbs. Hi, my name is Doc! I originally came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and was adopted for a while, but it turned out not to be the right fit so I’m back with Mostly Mutts looking for the right home! I’m currently in the prison/foster training program off-site having fun and learning a lot! Please inquire at 770-272-6888 to find out when I'm available to meet. • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I like playing with the other dogs I’ve met in the prison/foster training program, and when I’m finished playing, I’ll just lie down. In my former home, I went to doggie daycare at times, so if you have a dog that would like a friend, let’s meet! / I got along with the cat in my former home though I did chase at times, but they reported it was not aggressively. All cats are different, so I’m not sure how I would be with another cat. / I haven’t met children recently so if you have kids 15+ and older, let’s meet and kids should not walk me. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a sweet dog who is looking for a nice, dog-savvy family to give me good leadership and clear rules. I can sometimes guard toys and don’t love having my collar grabbed, but I’m working with my trainer and making progress (there were 2 minor bites related to grabbing my collar). I’m affectionate with most people, a little selective with others, and sometimes get mouthy when I play. With the right guidance, I’ll be a loyal, loving companion who just needs someone to believe in me. / My energy level is 3-5 in the prison/foster training program, so a nice 10-minute walk when out to potty seems to be what I need. I do also want mental stimulation such as puzzle toys and games. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I'm a proud graduate of the Mostly Mutts University training program, so I've mastered the 'sit', 'stay', 'down', 'come', 'drop it', 'leave it' and 'place' commands. I also use proper door etiquette and have good leash walking manners as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. I enjoy training and have been to 2 additional Mostly Mutts after adoption training classes. / My crate manners are good in the prison/foster training program and were also good in my former home. / My potty manners are good in the prison/foster training program and were also reported as good in my former home. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I like spending time with people, playing puzzle games and with toys and training together. I’m sure we’ll find lots of other things we’ll like doing together, too! / As mentioned above, I’ve struggled with collar reactivity and there have been a select few people I didn’t care for. I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. Not long after my initial rescue as a puppy, it was discovered that I was born with Legg-Perthes Disease and needed double FHO surgery. Thanks to the great care I received, I had my surgery, completed my recovery and physical therapy, and am doing really well! I am looking for a wonderful and loving home with a great family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
