My story

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

A SWEET GIRL WHO IS ‘ALL PUPPY’:  Approx. 5–6 months old / Approx. 29 lbs. & growing

Hi, my name’s Licorice – a darling puppy who is as sweet as my name!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and the volunteers are making sure that I know I am loved and safe.  Now, I hear it’s time for me to find a loving home of my very own, where I can be a great companion to a lucky family!

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I recently met dogs at Mostly Mutts and liked them, so if you have a nice doggie that would like a growing puppy friend, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids at Mostly Mutts yet, so let’s meet and best no very young kids that I may bump over or be a bit too playfully mouthy with.     
   
• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a bouncy, happy and sweet pup who just can’t get enough fun time in the play yard with the volunteers.  I’m super friendly and always ready for fun.  Baths are … well, a little scary when that sprayer comes out, but I did much better when the water was turned down softer, and I even sat nice and still for the shampoo part. Everyone says I have beautiful shiny fur and the sweetest eyes, and I love looking up at you like I’m listening to every word. / My energy level is 5-7+.

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I am a student in the Mostly Mutts University training program, where I look forward to learning lots of great commands with my trainer.  I have mastered the ‘sit’, ‘come’, and ‘drop it’ commands thus far.  I’m looking for a family that will teach me everything I need to know to grow up and become a wonderful adult dog – including starting to train me not to pull at shoes and pant legs, etc. so we’ll all be happy - so get ready for some training with your new best friend. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. / I’m still a puppy who is polishing up on my potty manners, so I've been having accidents on the shelter schedule.  Please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills. 

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  In the play yard, I love zooming around as fast as my paws will take me!  A fenced yard where we can have great play sessions together as I grow would be wonderful in my new home.  If you offer belly rubs (my favorite), I will accept them all day! I also enjoy Nylabones. A super sweet and fun pup, I just want to love and be loved. / I can’t think of things I don’t like yet since I’m so young, but I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training.

• MEDICAL:  I've started my puppy shots, but you will have to finish these for me as I grow.  I’m also micro-chipped and spayed.

If you’re ready for the fun and excitement of having a puppy as well as the training commitment, then let’s meet!  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!

You may also call our phone line, 770-272-6888 or email adopt@mostlymutts.org with specific questions about any of our adoptable animals. We do require an interview, references and a contract.

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
