In the shelter’s words

A SWEET SENIOR COMPANION: Approx. 11 years old / Approx. 33 lbs. Hi, my name is Meeko! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and have been soaking up the love from the dedicated volunteers and in my foster home ever since! I can’t remember how I ended up at animal control, but I’m thrilled to get a new chance to find a loving home and family – hopefully soon! I’m currently in a foster home while I wait for my furever family to come for me! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and did not like them, so I want to be your only dog. I don’t react to other dogs that I see on my walks, nor am I bothered by the two big dogs that live upstairs in my foster home, whom I live separately from but see frequently from afar in the yard. / Cats unknown, however, I have shown a bit of prey drive with other small animals. / I met a nice boy and a girl around 10 years old at Mostly Mutts and was nervous around them, so kids 15+ may be a good match for me. Let’s meet! • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a small guy with a big, loveable personality! I’m described as a sweet, gentle, fun-natured and playful, spunky guy. That’s right, I still have a spring in my step at 11 years old! I enjoy cuddling/snuggling with my people and will climb right into your lap if you let me! I’m not shy and can be vocal when I want your attention, so condo or apartment living would likely not be a good fit for me. I was also not shy about showing my elation, with grateful sighs of appreciation during my shelter bath. I am a smart, well-mannered, and friendly guy who is sure to bring joy to my new home! / My energy level is 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I have already shown that I know several commands: ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘stay’ and ‘come’. I also walk nicely on a leash, utilize proper door etiquette, and accept friendly strangers without jumping. I like to go on walks with my favorite stuffy toy in my mouth – so cute! I am treat-motivated and love to please, so I bet you can teach me even more – including taking advantage of the free training classes that Mostly Mutts offers to all their adoptive pups – who says an old dog can’t learn new tricks?! / My crate manners are good in my foster home, I quite like it in there actually, it’s like my ‘safe’ place! / My potty habits were good on the shelter schedule and are good in my foster home, too. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love to spend time with my foster and go for my daily walks and occasional car rides. I love people and greet them politely and always with an energetic tail wag. Playing fetch, chew toys, and tennis balls are my favorite things. You are not likely to find a bigger treat fan than me, either. Another thing I enjoy is peanut butter filled Kongs and I enjoy going for walks and surveying my world. In my foster home, I love to crawl into my bed and cover myself with a cozy blanket – my foster mom jokes that when I peek out of the blanket, I look like ET! / I can’t think of any dislikes, though 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. I came in with some broken teeth and needed a good dental cleaning when I arrived and thankfully MM has done that for me. I’ve got a skin tag on my back leg, but it doesn’t bother me, and I hope you won’t mind it either. I am taking an affordable over-the-counter joint supplement, which is good for all older doggies. I am looking for a wonderful furever home with a loving family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
