My personality

My story

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

In 2023, two of my fellow PETA fieldworkers encountered Mouth for the first time between summer and fall. At under 6 months old, the timid puppy was being kept in squalor (his cage made Mama Fratelli’s restaurant look like the Ritz!) in rural North Carolina, where local ordinances offer dogs little protection. Shortly thereafter, Mouth graced the cover of PETA’s quarterly report, his filthy pen on full display. (Rosalita would be horrified.)

Used for hunting and shown no love by his owner, Mouth was understandably shy. Good thing PETA fieldworkers never say die—we stopped by regularly to check in on Mouth and the other animals on the property, asking the animals’ owner each time for the chance to find the deserving individuals homes worthy of a “Save the Goon Docks” protest.

My coworkers and I ensured the sweet beagle had shade and flea medicine during the summer months, insulating straw during North Carolina’s harsh winters, and fresh water year-round.

Mouth wasn’t the only one who came around to fieldworkers’ charm. After using my own big mouth to remind the dog’s owner that he deserves better, all while showing him photo after photo of my own PETA-rescued beagle, he finally relinquished Mouth to PETA.

Safe and sound at PETA, fun-loving Mouth was neutered, vaccinated, and determined to be negative for heartworm disease. PETA’s resident beagle-fanatic foster guardian whisked Mouth to her home for some much-needed TLC. Mouth is roughly 17 pounds and seems to prefer having a Mikey-, Data-, and/or Chunk-worthy canine companion to adventure with.

Following a Sloth-worthy rescue mission, PETA is helping Mouth to find something more important than hidden treasure: a family who loves him. If you think your X marks the spot, click below to apply—no truffle shuffle required!
