My story

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

A GREAT COMPANION: Approx. 3 years old / Approx. 21 lbs.

Hi, my name’s Cherish!  I came to Mostly Mutts with another doggie friend from animal control who has already been adopted and now it’s my turn! I am grateful for the love and attention I am receiving in my wonderful foster home and I look forward to finding my very own family soon!  

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  Though I came to Mostly Mutts with another dog – and we got along fine – I have been a bit reactive toward other dogs, so I may need to be your only dog. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet while with Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over.     

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a sweet and somewhat reserved girl who arrived scared and a bit unsure.  I went to a foster home, which has helped me open up more and become ‘a wonderful dog’, as my foster says.  I have short spurts of playfulness, though my true calling seems to be patrolling my surroundings – always on alert for what may be behind the fence or out the window - lol.  I’m affectionate, but I am also quite busy with my self-appointed patrolling job, so the cuddle sessions are often short. / My energy level is 5-7. 

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I don’t know any commands right now, but I am treat motivated, and – if I am as serious about training as I am about overseeing my foster home - I think you can teach me some great doggie commands. / I’ve had excellent crate manners in my foster home. / My foster says my potty manners are pretty good at about 90% – just make sure I am taken out immediately when I go to the door or have just woken up.  A good, consistent schedule is key to mastering my potty skills. 

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I like hanging out watching the world go by - in fact, if there is a window, I want to be looking out of it at all times.  On the back of the couch snuggled in a comfy blanket is my idea of the perfect perch.  I like my walks and will wag my tail for a treat along the way. / I did NOT like the bath sprayer during my shelter bath and held to the side of the tub for dear life.  Other than not being wild about other dogs, 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.

I am looking for a great home where I will be a ‘cherished’ family member (do you see what I did there?).  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!

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
