My story

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

LOOKING FOR A SPECIAL FAMILY:  Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 68 lbs. 

Hi, I’m Constance, but I answer to the name Leia (please refer to Constance though when inquiring about me as that’s the name all my records are under). I was adopted as a puppy, but my family had a work change with travel and can no longer keep me, so Mostly Mutts welcomed me back into their family so I could find my furever home.  The shelter is stressful to me, but I’m learning to adjust, and have improved since I first arrived.  I spent some time in the prison/foster training program off-site and learned a lot!

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I’ve met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and liked them, I will correct them if they become too much though, to help them settle.  My former family also reported that I liked the dogs I met while with them, so if you have a nice dog at home, let’s meet! / My former family reported that I was good with kitty cats. I have not met cats while with Mostly Mutts. / My former family reported that I liked the kids I met while I was with them, though I don’t recall their ages.  I met kids at Mostly Mutts that were 10 years old and did well with them.  I don’t like being hugged though, so kids who are old enough to understand that are best and kids should not walk me as I can be a flight risk.  No very young kids and of course, let’s meet. 

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I came back to Mostly Mutts quite upset and very scared but also very sweet. My gentle nature continued to shine through, and with time and love, I’ve blossomed into the relaxed, affectionate pup I was meant to be!  It seems that once I know you, I’ll remember you, and when I see my favorite people, I want to get them right away in a happy way – giving them plenty of tail wags and kisses.  Loud or sudden noises spook me so I’m wearing a calming collar to help with that.  Energy level: 5-7 currently.

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I’m a proud graduate of the Mostly Mutts University training program so I’ve learned the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands.  I also use proper door etiquette and have good leash manners as well as accept nice strangers without jumping.  I also know the fun commands ‘high 5’, ‘paw’, and ‘stop’.  / My crate manners were good in the prison/foster training program.  / My potty manners have been good at Mostly Mutts and my former family reported that I did well with them, too. 
 
• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I’ve made great friends with a group of people at Mostly Mutts, and I get very excited when I see any of them and want to be with them right away!  Friends are the best and I’m sure I’ll bond deeply with my new family, and we’ll discover lots of things we like doing together. / I don’t like being restrained or hugged.  I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise and training.

• MEDICAL:  I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed.  Going to the vet stresses me, so I will likely need to be pre-medicated before vet visits.  I’ve started on an inexpensive anxiety medication to help me with shelter stress, just ask about this please.
 
I’m looking for a great family to love and be loved by!  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!

More about this rescue

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
