My story

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

ENJOYS SOAKING UP THE LOVE:  Approx. 12 years old / Approx. 14 lbs.

Hi there, I’m Jayne!  I’m a sweet older gal who made my way to Mostly Mutts with another dog friend (already adopted) and I’m so happy to be here getting lots of love and needed medical care while I wait for my forever home (see medical below).  I’m in a wonderful foster home now, waiting for my furever family to find me!

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I came in with a dog that I liked and have met other dogs that were about my size at Mostly Mutts and though I wasn’t ready to play with them, I also did not show any aggression.  I spent a week in a  home with another nice dog, and we coexisted well together, and I like the low-key female chihuahua in my current foster home, so if you have a nice dog at home that’s not looking for a playmate, let’s meet! / I ignore the cats in my foster home and don’t mind if they approach me.  All cats are different, so I’m not sure how I would be with another cat. / I like the gentle 7-year-old boy in my foster home and even like to snuggle with him, so let’s meet and best no very young kids since I’m an older gal.    

· PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a super sweet little lady who just wants the simple things in life – people to spend my time with, soft fluffy blankets to burrow into and a cozy, squishy bed to relax in.  My foster says I’m not the average 12-year-old girl and really need some exercise (1-2 miles) every day to be my best self.  I whine a bit asking for my walk, walk perfectly on my leash and haven’t had any reactions to anyone we pass.  I really enjoy a routine and now that I have adjusted to my foster family’s pattern, I am really thriving.  I’m calm unless left alone, friendly, and absolutely adore being with people.  I settle in quickly and love to keep my favorite humans close, so a stay-at-home or work-from-home family with a consistent schedule would be perfect for me!  I do tend to bark pretty loudly when I’m left alone (but my foster says I’m not a barky dog in general) so I’m not the best fit for apartment or condo living – but in the right home, I’ll be your loving, loyal little companion and I’ll make sure you always know you are loved.  My foster says I am a “SUPER sweet and very chill dog who just wants to hang out with her people (and she makes friends with everyone very easily).” / My energy level is 2-4.

· SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I know the ‘sit’ command and walk nicely on a leash - I’m sure I can learn more if you would like to teach me. / I’m not a big fan of being in a crate separated from my people and can be loud in it.  In one of my temporary foster homes, I did like resting in it with the door open. / My foster says that my potty habits are good - I sleep through the night and that I let her know every few hours during the day that I need to go outside and have not had any accidents in their home – yay me!

· LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love going outside for my daily walks and despite my age, I have the stamina to walk briskly for a few miles – nothing beats breathing in the cool, crisp air!  I’m a big fan of snuggling up together afterward.  Beef liver dog treats are yummy, and honestly, just being with people makes me the happiest little pup around.  I like to follow my people around (my foster says “not annoyingly so” lol) and enjoy routine.  I also enjoy car rides so you can take me places with you! / In addition to not being a fan of being alone much, loud noises startle me.  I’m also sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, and training.

· MEDICAL:  I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed.  I’m taking an anxiety medication to help with shelter stress and it’s very possible that I’ll be able to come off this gradually as I settle into my new home.  My foster says this is very likely as I’ve already made so much progress settling in with them.  I came in with severe dental disease, and thankfully I’ve just had a good dental cleaning as well as 2 warts removed from my face.  I’ve got a grade 3/6 heart murmur that does not require medication at this time and may improve now that I’ve had a good dental cleaning.

I am looking for a wonderful home where I will be a cherished family member!  My adoption fee is $100.00, 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
