My story

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

A FUN, ACTIVE & HAPPY PUP:  Approx. 7 months old / Approx. 38 lbs. and growing  

Hi, my name is Lucas!  Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I sure am happy about that!  I arrived with a pretty rough case of juvenile cellulitis, but I’ve recovered from that and looking and feeling great now!  I was adopted for a few months but came back as I was a bit too much of a puppy for the young kids in the family.  So, I’m looking for a new family to love and be active with!  I got to spend some time in the prison/foster training program off site and learned a lot!  

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I have really liked and wanted to play with every dog I’ve met at Mostly Mutts, in the prison/foster training program and my former family reported that I liked the dogs I met with them, too.  If you have a nice doggie who may enjoy a fun and playful buddy, let’s meet and see if we can be lifetime pals! / My former family reported that I did well with cats, so let’s meet. / I liked the younger kids in my former home but I’m a typical bigger mouthy puppy, so kids 10 and older may be best in my new home - let’s meet!

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  The volunteers describe me as ‘a super sweet and adorable boy’.  I’ve got lots of exuberant and goofy puppy energy that just needs direction through training and meeting my exercise needs.  A typical puppy, I am friendly and curious about and nibble on everything – including the volunteers – playfully, of course.  I’m as cute as I am playful, so let’s have fun together! / My energy level is 6-8, so get ready to be active with (and invest training in) your new best friend!

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I’m in the Mostly Mutts University training program and so far, I’ve learned the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands as well as how to accept friendly strangers without jumping and utilize proper door etiquette.  I think I’m pretty smart, don’t you?  I am also highly treat motivated which helps with my training.  Now I’m working on my leash manners as well as lots of other commands.  I love my learning, so teach me lots of tricks! / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts and in my former home. / My former family reported that I was now potty trained, and I’ve barely had any accidents since returning to MM, so once I know the routine at my new home, I think I will do well.   

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I LOVE to play.  All toys excite me and spending time playing with the volunteers in the play yard is just the BEST!  I’d enjoy a fenced yard in my new home, where we can have lots of play sessions together. I’m affectionate and loving, so I loved being held, giving kisses, and being cuddled up in my towel after my shelter bath. I also ride well in the car, so let’s go have some fun together! / 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’m looking for a wonderful home with an active family!  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!

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
