My story

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

A HAPPY & LOVING FRIEND:  Approx. 3 years old / Approx. 35 lbs.

Hi, my name is Beso!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control.  They have been taking great care of me here, and I even got to visit a couple of nice temporary foster homes during the recent snow and ice events, so that was a lot of fun!  One of my temporary fosters said I “will make a lucky family a great companion.”  I came in with some itchy skin and a little fur loss possibly from a flea allergy so I’m getting medicated baths to help with that.  I’m now ready to find a great furever home of my very own – so that the fun can continue!  

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I got along just great with the dogs I met in both temp. foster homes recently (though I may have mischievously stolen a toy or two, but only in a playful way – lol) , so – if you have a nice dog at home already, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over.

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  Everyone agrees – I am a super sweet guy with a fun and loving personality!  My mixed Border Collie breed shines through, as I am a smart boy, too.  I’m keen to what is going on in my surroundings and will give ‘bark alerts’ for my family.  Though I was initially scared of the bath sprayer for my first bath, I braved my way through and thoroughly enjoyed the rubs and scrubs that brought relief for my itchy skin.  What a handsome boy I will be when my fur finishes growing back in!  A total love bug, I am ready to be your loyal lap dog – yep, all 35 lbs. of me – lol.  You are sure to love my friendly disposition – with people and fur friends alike. / My energy level is 6-8, so let’s be active and have fun together.

• 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 was familiar with the ‘sit’ command in both of my temp. foster homes and had good leash manners.  Check back soon to see my progress. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts, and – though not crated in one temp. foster home, I slept through the night nicely in a crate in the other. / I’ve had good potty habits at the shelter and in both temp. foster homes.

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  My Mostly Mutts name fits me well, as ‘beso’ means ‘kiss’ in Spanish, and I love to give lots of them!  I’m also a big fan of Nylabones and STRONG chew toys.  Treats?  Yes, please.  I also enjoy my walks and being near my people.  Giving affection and making you smile – those are my favorite things! / I can’t think of any dislikes, though 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 neutered. I am continuing with medicated baths for a bit longer and these can be done in my new home.  
 
I am looking for a wonderful home with a loving family!  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
