ORION - TERRIER / DACHSHUND / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Dachshund / Mixed. A PLAYFUL & SWEET BOY: Approx. 7 years old / Approx. 22 lbs. Hi there I’m Orion! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and am enjoying my time with the nice volunteers, who spend time with and take great care of me. I’m ready to find a wonderful family of my very own – where I can love and be loved furever! I came in heartworm positive, but I’ll be treated for that soon, so local adoption please. • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and did not like them, so I’ll want to be your only dog. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. I also wanted to chase a child I saw on a bike – but that may have just been because they were on a bike, I’m not sure. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a playful, happy, and super sweet boy with a gentle nature and just the right amount of energy. I was a perfect gentleman for my bath - calm, relaxed, and such a sweetheart - giving kisses and even hugging my bather during the rinse, then sitting quietly for my ear cleaning. I may have looked a bit serious during my photo shoot, but I’m truly a fun-loving and affectionate pup! / Energy level: 5-7 and I’ll need to stay a bit calmer until I’ve had my heart worm treatment and finished my rest period. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program and have already mastered the ‘sit’, ‘down’ and ‘come’ commands and I look forward to learning more. Let's continue my training together with the free lifetime training classes that Mostly Mutts offers for all their adopted dogs. / The crate is not my favorite place, but I’m working on it – it’s a bit difficult for me to go back in and sometimes I can be a little reactive because I’d rather be out with the volunteers. My trainer is working with me on this, and they will be happy to help you. / My potty manners have been good at the shelter with very few accidents. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love treats, being with my people, and having fun! I’m sure once I’m settled into my new home, we’ll discover lots more things to enjoy together. / Other than dogs and being crated, I can’t think of other dislikes, though 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 neutered. I just had a dental cleaning so my mouth is fresh and clean again! Since I wasn’t kept on heartworm prevention in my previous home, I’m heartworm positive. The good news is that I’ll be treated for that in late May 2026, and Mostly Mutts will cover the cost of that treatment with their vet, so local adoption please. I hope to be with my new family before treatment begins! I’m a fun little dog looking for a great family that will take great care of me and love me furever! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
