Story
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.  February 12, 2026, 10:42 am

Story
Midnight ended up at animal control after his owners abandoned him at a clinic. He was held for a while but with so many dogs he ended up on the euthanasia list. Can you imagine? This little guy is a very nice dog with a great temperament. He loves to hang with his people way more than the other dogs at his foster home. He appears to prefer the company of the females in the foster home pack. His foster family believe he is mixed with corgi or other herding breed because he has a habit of jumping and mouthing to get attention. Midnight is not rally a vocal dog. But when he has something to say it is in a a "Big Dog" bark but the good news is he's not a huge barker unless he's excited about something. Midnight sleeps quietly in a crate like a gentleman. Midnight is completely potty trained. He no longer takes any medicine for anything but when he did he took it like a champ. He loves to chase a ball and bring it back to you to throw again. He loves to go for loooooooong leash walks. He needs a home with people that will dedicate time to his daily walks. This guy absolutely loves to explore the back yard and will definitely need a fenced yard. He is working on waiting but still is a BIG Door Darter. He is very excited to GO, GO, GOI! A home with adults and everyone over 16yrs is needed so he doesn’t sneak out past a kiddo. ✅ Sweet guy ✅ loves to walk & play with toys ✅ crate trained 🚫 door dasher so no young kiddos ✅ housetrained ✅ smart and eager to learn If you are interested in adopting Midnight, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Midnight's adoption fee is $500. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Midnight will go to his / her new home microchipped, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed. Almost every dog's veterinary expenses exceed our adoption fees; we are a non-profit. DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group. We focus on the metro Atlanta area and can assist throughout the state of Georgia. Since our rescue is entirely run and staffed by volunteers, our ability to travel long distances for adoptions is somewhat limited. We focus on Georgia, but if you are in a neighboring state, we might be able to work something out - we'll expect you to do your part. DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back. Follow us on Instagram , Facebook and Twitter

Story
I'm Sprout, and I am a snuggle bug, big fan of the stuffy toy fetch game, and a devoted fan of the show Slow Horses. I am 110% dachshund. I have it ALL -- everything you've heard about dachshunds? I've got it. Snuggly? Check. Food motivated? Yup. Nosy up in all your business? Oh yeah. Demanding of attention? See "nosy." Burrow under blankies? All the time. Funny? SO FUNNY. Sweet kisses? I got 'em. Prey drive? Oh yeah. Show me the squirrel. And if you have a shed, I will get under it to hunt. . I'm 9 pounds of love and pure nerve. I love my people and I love my doggie friends. I'm a big fan of the couch cuddle -- with both people and doggies -- and of the doggie wrestling. I LOVE playing fetch and I love hangout time. Adults and kiddos over 10 only please. I had a disc rupture (darn dachshund genes) but I walk almost normally now. I can run and play with a fun little wobble but I cannot do stairs. (I can climb a ramp.) I have pretty good control of my bladder but if you give me a little extra squeeze when we go outside (foster mom will teach you), I don't leak in the house unless I get too full. Expressing a dog is easy peasy and foster mom is an expert teacher. If you keep me on a schedule, I do just fine. I have done physical therapy to improve my core strength. PILATES, anyone? I sometimes do not realize I am pooping, but most of the time I do well. I am a delight to be around and a real charmer. When someone new comes to the house, I will bark, but as soon as they pay the "Sprout Tax" (treats), we can be besties and I will want to be in their lap. I am protective, like most dachshunds -- someone has to do it! If you are interested in adopting Sprout, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Sprout's adoption fee is $400. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Sprout will go to his / her new home microchipped, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed.
