My story

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

‘FABRIC’ THEMED MOMMA:  Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 25 lbs.

Hello, I’m Cashmere – sweet momma to the Fabric themed puppies!  I was at animal control – heartworm positive and nursing my pups when Mostly Mutts was able to rescue all of us!  I’m so grateful that I was then able to finish raising my puppies in a wonderful foster home and that my heartworms will be treated, as well.  Yippee!  Now it’s my time to find a wonderful new family to love!

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  My foster says I love the company of the other dogs in my foster home, as I play well with them and understand when space is needed.  I also met dogs at Mostly Mutts and did fine with them – I didn’t play, but likely just needed a little time to get to know them.  I think I’d enjoy having a doggie friend in my new home, so if you have a nice dog already, let’s meet and see if we can be pals! / I’ve shown no interest in the cat that lives in my foster home and do not engage with them at all, so I could probably live just fine with a dog-friendly (or dog-tolerant) kitty.  Let’s meet! / I haven’t met kids yet, so let’s meet and best no very young kids as I wouldn’t want to bump them over. 
  
• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I am a sweet, friendly and loving ‘people dog’ who is playful and affectionate.  I’ll impress you with my ‘smarts’ and how much I relish interacting with people and other dogs.  Basically, I am ‘an absolute sweetheart’ of a dog – ready for the good life in my new home! / My energy level is 6-8, so let’s go have some fun together!  

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  My foster has been working with me on several doggie commands.  I know ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘shake paw’, and the word "no".  Right now, I am working on "four-on-the-floor" and on coming when called.  Such a smart girl, I am! / It is never my idea to go to my crate and will place my paws firmly and back away.  I just prefer being with my people. I cry when crated, so a condo or apartment environment would not be a good fit for me. / My foster has me on a good potty schedule and says that I like to walk for about 30 minutes before going potty. I’ve not yet learned to signal when I need to go out, so a good, consistent schedule is the way to go with me.  A late evening walk is important to avoid an overnight accident.  My foster rewards me with a treat and the signal word ‘yes’ when I potty – trying to teach me to alert when I need to go potty. 
  
• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I absolutely love long walks and have a blast hiking the trails at Kennesaw Mountain. If you are looking for a hiking buddy, I’m your girl!  I enjoy being outside in the yard - but hang with me, as I will dig for critters (chipmunks, garden snakes, etc.) and am adept in my foster home at getting through the rails of a fence if I’m not monitored. I also enjoy playing fetch and am learning to bring the ball back for continued play.  Nylabones are great and needed, as I am quite an enthusiastic chewer.  Belly and chin rubs, as well as ear scratches, are at the top of my list too. / I don’t like to be away from my people, so a stay-at-home or work-from home family member would be a great fit for me.  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.  Unfortunately, my previous owner did not keep me on a monthly heartworm preventative, so I am heartworm positive.  Mostly Mutts will cover the cost of my treatment with their vet, so local adoption only, please.

I am looking for a loving home with a wonderful 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
