Delphina - Mutt Female Dog For Adoption in Kennesaw, Georgia, USA

Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed.

SWEET, SHY & ADORABLE: Approx. 3 years old / Approx. 20 lbs. Hi, I'm Delphina! I came to Mostly Mutts when I found myself in need of a home! Thankfully, they took me in, and I am in a wonderful foster home now, just waiting for my furever family to find me—maybe it's you! I look forward to that very much! 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 was interested in them and did not show any aggression, so if you have a nice dog at home already, let's meet! / 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 cuddly, gentle girl who is a little scared and shy at first, so please go slowly and give me time to feel comfortable. I'm already growing in confidence and showing everyone more of my wonderful personality! Once I feel safe, I'm quite the little love bug and absolutely adore cuddling. My foster says that I’m “a true velcro girl and just wants to lay with you and be by your side and really is one of the sweetest dogs I have met.” I also have the cutest little trot/prance. I was a perfect angel for my bath and showed off my beautiful coat, too. With patience, love and reassurance, I'm sure I'll continue to blossom into the happy, confident companion I'm meant to be! / Energy level: 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I know the 'sit' and 'come' commands so far. Let's continue my training together with the free lifetime training classes that Mostly Mutts offers for all their adopted dogs! / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts and in my foster home. I sleep in my crate at night and while my people are not at home. / I'm working on my potty manners and improving, so I'll want my new family to help me finish learning this. It's best if I go outside right after I come out of my crate and sniff around a bit to find a nice, private spot to go potty. Since I'm still fearful outside, my foster carries me to a wooded part of the yard (on leash) and that has helped me. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I like cuddling with my foster on the couch and playing with my soft squeak toy. Ear scratches are great too and just hanging around the home with you! I'm sure we'll find lots of other things we will enjoy doing together once I'm settled in my new home. / I'm pretty scared when I'm outside and can be especially nervous around cars, traffic, and lawnmowers, so I'll need you to keep me safe. With patience and reassurance, I believe I'll learn that these things aren't so scary. 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. Sadly, I wasn't kept on heartworm prevention in my previous home, so I'm heartworm positive. The good news is that I'll be treated for that at the end of October, 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 sweetie who is looking for a wonderful gentle family that will treasure me. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I'm located in Kennesaw, Ga.
