My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

A SMART & ACTIVE FRIEND:  Approx. 2 years old / Approx. 63 lbs.    

Hi, I’m Punky!  I was adopted as a young puppy, but things didn’t work out long term as I came into my Cattle Dog traits, so I’m back with Mostly Mutts looking for a Cattle Dog loving home!  

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met some nice dogs at Mostly Mutts and played well with them!  My former family also reported that I liked the dogs I met while I was with them.  I played well with the dogs in my temp. foster home, a 7-year-old pug and a 12-year-old golden retriever.  Best no smaller dogs though as I do have prey drive. / No cats due to prey drive. / I met kids recently at Mostly Mutts and LOVED THEM, and I liked the kids in my former family, though I was wary of their friends coming into the home, so kids 15+ would be best.  Let’s meet! 

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  My trainer describes me as very sweet and lovable, well behaved, and well trained too.  I’m affectionate and have a protective nature which is me being true to my breed.  I’ve shown some guarding of my people and my home towards strangers entering.  Mostly Mutts is working with me on this and will work with my new family too!  / My energy level is 4 – 6.

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program, and I've mastered the 'sit', 'stay', 'down', 'come', 'leave it' and 'place' commands so far.  I also use proper door etiquette and accept nice strangers without jumping on them at Mostly Mutts. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts and were good in my former home too. / My potty habits are good at Mostly Mutts and were good in my former home too.

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I like learning so you can train me to do a lot! I also like being active with my people, cuddling and playing.  A volunteer took me to play in a stream at the park and I really enjoyed that.  I also do well in the car and love being outside so take me on some fun adventures!  / Other than the above-mentioned things, I’m a bit hesitant walking around traffic, but I’m getting better, and the iRobot vacuum in my temp. foster home was a bit of a menace.  Otherwise, 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 spayed.

I’m looking for a great family, that knows my breed, to have a great life with!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

Mostly Mutts Animal Rescue & Adoption's Adoption Process

Our facility is currently open to the public Monday-Saturday, 11-3. We welcome you to come meet our adoptable Mutts & Kitties! Please keep in mind the following:

Many of our adoptable Mutts & Kitties are in foster homes, so please call 770-272-6888 to find out if the pet you are interested in is at our facility. With an approved application we can set up meet & greets and adoptions with a pet in foster care.
We are not yet up to full ‘staffing’ following the pandemic, so there may be times when we cannot do meet & greets or process an application on the spot.
The best first step is to submit an application via www.mostlymutts.org.
Our adoption counselors are happy to help make a great match for you and your family!

Adoption Info:
Please submit an application through our website at www.mostlymutts.org if you are interested in one of our adoptable pets. We are receiving a large volume of applications and processing may take a little bit longer than normal. We are grateful for your interest, and an adoption counselor will be in touch as quickly as possible. Please give us 48 hours to respond before sending a follow-up email.

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. Due to the overwhelming demand, many are matched with approved applicants prior to being posted online. Our adoption counselors will be happy to help make a great match for you and your family.

Thank you for your patience and support!

More about this rescue

Who We Are:

Mostly Mutts is a 501(c)3, non-profit organization, staffed almost entirely by volunteers!

Our Mission is to help the Unwanted, Abandoned, Abused and Sick animals in our local counties. We fulfill this mission by working closely with County Animal Control Facilities, saving those who are in imminent danger of euthanasia, or those with needs which require specialized vet care that many other groups will not consider: major orthopedic issues, heartworm positive treatment, skin conditions, neglect and abuse
