My story

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

‘Z’ THEMED PUPPY:  Approx. 2 months old / Approx. 5-6 lbs. & growing

Hi there! I’m one of the adorable ‘Z’ themed puppies who made my way to Mostly Mutts thanks to a kind-hearted Samaritan who rescued me and knew I deserved a good start in life. I’m so grateful for that chance! I’m in a wonderful foster home now where I’m learning, growing, and getting ready for the best part – finding my furever family!

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I love my siblings and have met bigger adult dogs in my foster home.  I like them and am figuring out how to play with them, so if you have a nice doggie that would like a puppy friend, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids in my foster home yet, so let’s meet, and it’s best I don’t live with toddlers who could fall on me.  I also prefer not to be picked up or hugged.         
 
• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a fun little pup, full of playful energy and all the silly shenanigans you’d expect from a youngster like me!  Though I’m not one to enjoy being held, I do love being around my people! / My energy level is around 5-7 right now, of course this could change as I grow up.

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  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 chew on you and the kids so we’ll all be happy – so get ready for some training with your new best friend. / I sleep well in my crate at nighttime with one of my siblings, of course there may be an adjustment once I’m in my new home.  I’ve not gone #2 in my crate, so yay me and sometimes I like to go in it and take naps after playing. / I’m at the beginning of my potty training, so I’ll need my family to be committed to potty training me in our yard – stay close to me as I’m tiny and the birds of prey could take an interest in me.

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love playing with my sibling and I have a more vocal/growly playstyle. I’m ready to have lots of fun and discover a lot of things we can enjoy doing together as I like being with my people. / I’ve learned that being held isn’t really my thing, and hugs are a hard pass for now.  When someone picks me up or hugs me, I get uncomfortable – sometimes I even start shaking.  And if I’m in full zoomies mode, I might grunt or fuss if someone tries to pick me up. I’m much happier keeping my paws on the ground and showing affection that way!  I’m also sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough encouragement, 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 neutered.

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!

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
