In the shelter’s words

A SWEET, GENTLE SOUL: Approx. 10 years old / Approx. 9 lbs. Hi, my name is Rae! I came to Mostly Mutts with three other doggies from a very neglectful situation. My first stop was animal control, where they began getting me the vetting and good care I needed. Then Mostly Mutts stepped up and – while it has taken a while to get me into good shape, I am now ready to meet my new family and live the good life all doggies deserve. • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I am living with other dogs in my foster home, and we get along fine. I basically ignore them, so if you have a nice doggie at home that isn’t looking for a playmate, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I’d do best in a home with older children who know to be gentle with a tiny, senior girl like me, so let’s meet! • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a pretty quiet girl with a calm and gentle demeanor. I’ve settled into my foster home and like the routine of napping, walking about a bit to explore, collecting some petting, then going for another nap. I do have a curious nature, so I look forward to some short walks with my foster once I’m fully healed from my spay, dental and mammary mass removal. I am friendly and sweet, but not really a cuddle bug/lap dog. Your love and attention are appreciated though! / Energy level: 3-5. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I’m pretty hard of hearing, so I respond better to louder sound commands or a whistle than word commands. My foster gets my attention, taps her leg and I come to her. Mostly Mutts offers free lifetime training classes for all their adopted dogs, so perhaps they will have some good ideas to help a dog that’s hard of hearing – just ask them. / I’m not crated in my foster home, as I stay in a small bathroom at night or when my foster can't keep a close eye on me to encourage me to use my potty pad. / My potty habits are coming along – slowly, but there has been progress. My foster works from home and pays close attention to me when I get up and as soon as I eat. Then, I’ll follow my foster and go outside. Otherwise, I may potty inside. Potty pads are sometimes used, but sometimes I go right beside them. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I’m an affectionate girl who loves ear scratches and belly rubs when I first wake up. I think I’ll enjoy short walks post-surgery as I am curious and like to spend time exploring my surroundings. Though I have some sight limitations, I navigate obstacles and still get around well. Soft treats are a favorite of mine, too – yum! / When it comes to grooming, I don’t like the blow dryer but did well just drying in the sun on a nice day. I’m also not a lap dog, though I am a nice little dog. I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, and gentle exercise. I also don’t think I’d want to live in a busy home. • MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I had a good dental cleaning with 14 teeth removed, so my mouth is healthy again. I also came in with some missing teeth. I’m on an over-the-counter Cosequin tablet that is good for all senior dogs. I had a mass in my mammary chain which has been removed now. I’m receiving medicated baths for a little longer and these can be done in my new home. I’m looking for a great home with a loving family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

With an approved application we can set up meet & greets and adoptions with a pet in foster care.

Adoption Info: Adoptions are being scheduled for approved applicants, by appointment only.

Don’t see a dog or cat for you on the website? Submit the application anyway!! We are taking in a large number of dogs and cats weekly.
