Meet Sienna

Sienna made it out of the Georgia kill shelter and safely arrived in Wisconsin with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on November 15 — all thanks to the incredible support of those who helped her get her second chance. She’s now settling into her foster home and doing wonderfully.

This sweet girl hasn’t had an easy start to life. Sienna came to the shelter with her mom, Amber — one of our previously adopted Mutt Life dogs. Before rescue, they were neglected and living outside, left to fend for themselves. Despite everything she’s been through, Sienna’s spirit is shining brighter every day.

In her foster home, Sienna has shown just how smart and adaptable she is. She is now potty trained, crate trained, and gets along beautifully with the four dogs and two cats she lives with. She absolutely loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. She’s goofy, energetic, and happiest when she’s running around, wrestling, or playing chase with her dog friends.

Sienna also loves kids and has been gentle and sweet with the ones she’s met.

She can be a little timid at first, and she may need a bit of time to adjust to her new home when she’s adopted — but after everything she’s endured in her short two years, who could blame her? Give her patience, kindness, and love, and she will return it tenfold.

This bright, affectionate girl is ready for her forever family. Could that be you?

4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.

5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.

6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.


**Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**
