For the latest updates on the mutts, follow us on Facebook: @muttlifewi Visit our website: Muttlife.org __________ Meet Dutton: Dutton made it safely to Wisconsin on 11/15 and is settling in wonderfully in his foster home! He’s a super sweet and cuddly pup who is getting along great with the other dogs and starting to feel completely at home. Dutton is also working on all the puppy basics, including potty training, crate training, and leash manners. From a rough start to a second chance, Dutton is ready to shine. He’s part of the Yellowstone litter — Beth, Teeter, Dutton, Rip, and Kayce — who came into a Georgia kill shelter after being surrendered. While it’s hard to guess the exact breed since each pup is a little different, Dutton and his siblings are all slightly fluffy and are expected to grow into large dogs. At just 9 weeks old and around 10 lbs, Dutton is thriving and his sweet, playful personality is shining through. He’s curious, affectionate, and ready for a loving forever home.

Explore our adoptable animals and find your perfect match today! For the latest updates on the mutts, follow us on Facebook: @muttlifewi Visit our website: Muttlife.org __________ Meet Sienna Sienna made it out of the Georgia kill shelter and safely arrived in Wisconsin with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on November 15 — all thanks to the incredible support of those who helped her get her second chance. She’s now settling into her foster home and doing wonderfully. This sweet girl hasn’t had an easy start to life. Sienna came to the shelter with her mom, Amber — one of our previously adopted Mutt Life dogs. Before rescue, they were neglected and living outside, left to fend for themselves. Despite everything she’s been through, Sienna’s spirit is shining brighter every day. In her foster home, Sienna has shown just how smart and adaptable she is. She is now potty trained, crate trained, and gets along beautifully with the four dogs and two cats she lives with. She absolutely loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. She’s goofy, energetic, and happiest when she’s running around, wrestling, or playing chase with her dog friends. Sienna also loves kids and has been gentle and sweet with the ones she’s met. She can be a little timid at first, and she may need a bit of time to adjust to her new home when she’s adopted — but after everything she’s endured in her short two years, who could blame her? Give her patience, kindness, and love, and she will return it tenfold. This bright, affectionate girl is ready for her forever family. Could that be you?

Scooby made it safely to Wisconsin and is loving life in his foster home! This gentle senior may have reached his golden years, but don’t let that fool you — he’s still got plenty of spunk and joy left to share. Scooby enjoys short walks, soft beds, tasty treats, and spending time with his people. He’s a happy, easygoing guy who’s just thrilled to be part of a loving home again. At around 11 years old and weighing about 78 lbs, Scooby is best guessed to be a Boxer mix. He’s well-mannered, affectionate, and great with other dogs. He’s respectful, calm, and has settled beautifully into home life. He’s believed to be potty trained, keeps his space clean, and has shown no signs of being destructive. Scooby’s gentle nature and soulful eyes win everyone over instantly. While he’s content to nap the day away, he still has bursts of energy and playful moments that remind you just how much life and love he has left to give. He hasn’t been tested with cats yet, but with slow introductions, he’d likely do fine.
