PINKY - TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. A DELIGHTFUL COMPANION: Approx. 10 years old / Approx. 32 lbs. Hi there, I’m Pinky! Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I am very happy about that! I needed bloodwork and a good dental cleaning when I arrived and I've had those completed now, thanks to a generous grant from the Grey Muzzle Organization! Now I’m waiting patiently for my chance to be a loyal and loving companion for my forever family, and I hope that time comes soon! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I recently met dogs at Mostly Mutts and although I didn’t really want to play with them, I also didn’t show any aggression. In my temp. foster home, I met a visiting goldendoodle and liked them, and I’ve also been nice with the dogs I’ve seen on my walks, so if you have a nice dog at home already, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I met a group of children on a walk with my temp. foster and was a little shy and intimidated at first, but I stayed calm and gentle the whole time. I met my temp. foster’s 13-year-old granddaughter and really liked her. If you have kids that will go slowly with me, let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may accidentally bump over. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: The volunteers say that I’m an adorable angel, full of joy, tail wags, and love to share. I’m about 10 years old, but my temp. foster reported that I act younger - full of life and enthusiasm! I’m gentle, and such a sweet girl who looks to my people for direction and reassurance. I form a close bond with my main caregiver, but I also enjoy sharing love and attention with everyone I meet. At first, I was timid with sudden movements or noises, but I made great progress in my temp. foster home. I warm up quickly and was calm and sweet for my shelter bath and ear cleaning. I’m intelligent, eager to please, submissive-natured and happiest just being by your side - your perfect companion! / Energy level: 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I know the ‘sit’, ‘leave it’, and ‘lie down’ commands and I walk nicely on my leash. / I went into my crate well when my temp. foster simply pointed to the opening and I did well when they needed to be away for a little while. I do enjoy a peanut butter Kong from time to time and I prefer not to spend a lot of time in a crate. In fact, when they left sometimes, they let me stay out of the crate and I did well. / My potty manners were great in my temp. foster home, and I’ll alert when I need to go out by communicating this with a soft whine or vocalization. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I like so many things - mealtime, car rides, dog cookies, pill pockets, and even doggie ice cream! Walks are always a highlight, whether they’re long or short, because I love being outside taking in all the wonderful smells. Snuggling is one of my favorite pastimes - I’ll happily curl up in a blanket, play hide and seek under the covers, or just press my face against you while you stroke and cuddle me. Oh, and belly rubs? Yes, please - I’ll roll right over for those! / I don’t think I’d enjoy a loud or very busy home as I like the quieter life. 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 had 12 teeth pulled during my dental cleaning, so my mouth is fresh again. I’m just a wonderful girl looking for a wonderful family that will treasure me and appreciate my delightful nature. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
