Story
SWEET & VERY HARD OF HEARING: Approx. 10 years old / Approx. 12 lbs. Hi, I'm Edna! I came to Mostly Mutts when I found myself in need of a new home. I enjoyed my time with the nice volunteers who showed me love and took great care of me while I was at the shelter. Now I'm in a wonderful foster home while I wait for my new family to come and adopt me. I hope to meet them very soon and charm them with my cuteness and laid-back nature!  • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and though I wasn't quite ready to play with them, I was interested and did not show any aggression, so if you have a nice dog at home already, let's meet! In my foster home, I simply ignore the dogs I come across while on our walks—even the ones that bark. / Cats unknown. / I haven't met kids yet, but my foster things older calm kids would be best since I'm an older gal and don't hear well, so if you have kids like this, let's meet.     • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: When I was at the MM shelter, I was an absolute doll who was precious, friendly, sweet, and happy! I was also wonderful for my bath, brushing, and even a little hair-dryer time. I had the cutest happy, bouncy walk that is sure to make you smile! I enjoyed sitting with them on the bench out front and watching all the people go by. In my foster home, I'm showing everyone that I'm a sweet girl who loves being in the same room as my people, although I'm also quite independent. I think I just like knowing someone is nearby—even if I don't necessarily need you to entertain me! I can be cuddly, but I like my cuddles on my terms, thank you very much. I do have a bit of a stubborn streak, and while I'm hard of hearing, I can hear louder sounds, so a clap or talking loudly will usually get my attention. I can also be a little “grumpy” first thing in the morning or at bedtime—perhaps I'm simply not a morning dog, or maybe I take my beauty sleep very seriously! Once I'm up and about, though, I'm back to being my lovable self. /Energy level: 3-5.      • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I seem to know the hand signal for 'come', and Mostly Mutts offers free lifetime training classes for all their adopted dogs, so we can do some training together if you like. / My crate manners were good at the shelter. I sleep nicely at the foot of the bed in my foster home and so far, one of my foster parents has been home with me, so they haven't crated me during the day. I do sleep a lot, so they think I'd be fine in a crate, after the first few minutes. / My potty manners are improving on a very frequent take-out schedule, so I'll need a stay-at-home family member who can take me out frequently. Ask how this is coming along.    • LIKES/DISLIKES: I'm happiest when I'm simply relaxing with my people. I enjoy being with both of my foster parents, getting lots of gentle pets, and exploring while I sniff around and check things out. Treats and peanut butter are yummy, and my foster puts my pill in peanut butter. I'm also perfectly content to spend plenty of time sleeping or resting nearby. I don't need a lot of excitement to be happy—I just enjoy having someone around to keep me company, and I'm sure we'll discover lots more things we like doing together in our new home! / I'm not a fan of fast movements, and because I'm hard of hearing, I can startle if someone approaches me too quickly. I'm not particularly interested in toys, and I'm not a big fan of spending lots of time outdoors except for short walks where I can take my time sniffing and exploring. And like all dogs, I'm sure I wouldn't like it if I didn't get enough love, attention, and training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I needed a good dental cleaning when I arrived, and MM has done that for me. I have dry eyes and need cyclosporin drops twice a day. I comply with these (though I don't love them) when I'm wrapped in a little blanket and held by one person and another person drops the eye drops in my eyes. I'm also on an over-the-counter joint supplement that is good for all senior dogs.  I'm a wonderful little dog looking for a great family that will be home a lot and will take great care of me. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I'm located in Kennesaw, Ga.  October 7, 2026, 8:56 am

Story
    Meet Pooh Poppins!  Pooh Poppins is a petite, 9-year-old, lady weighing in at about 10 pounds, and she has decided that her favorite place in the world is wherever her person happens to be. If that means sitting quietly beside you on a chair for several hours, Pooh is completely on board. Pooh is a gentle, easygoing, little companion who doesn't need much entertainment. Toys? She's not particularly impressed. Other dogs? She mostly just goes around them. Barking? She doesn't bother when she's with her person. What she really wants is simple: a comfortable spot, a human nearby, and a good meal. And Pooh takes the last one very seriously.  She has beautiful, long, silky hair and a delicate little frame, along with a permanently peeking-out tongue that makes her even more endearing. She is comfortable being picked up and enjoys general petting, though she would prefer that her face be left alone. She has very few teeth, so she's not looking to win any chewing contests. Pooh has significant hearing and vision limitations and appears to hear little, if anything. One of her eyes was removed due to a birth defect and the other one needs medication to help her tear production. She can see some movement and light, and she's learned her way around familiar spaces, but she does bump into things. Because of this, she will need a patient adopter who is willing to help her navigate her environment and keep her safe. She doesn't understand walking on a leash, so being carried or using a stroller setup works better for her. She is making progress with potty training and does well when given regular opportunities to go outside. A crate, however, is not Pooh's favorite place and she can become very distressed when confined. Her ideal home will be one where she doesn't need to spend long periods crated and where someone can give her a safe, appropriately managed environment while they're away. Pooh isn't looking for an action-packed retirement. She's looking for her person. Someone who will appreciate a quiet little shadow, give her a cozy place to settle in, keep her world predictable and safe, and understand that her disabilities simply mean she experiences that world a little differently. If you've ever thought that the perfect dog might be a tiny, slightly quirky senior who mostly wants to sit beside you and quietly exist together, Pooh Poppins may be your girl. An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions. We verify rental policies and adhere to any regulations. Please ensure you understand those restrictions before choosing a dog.          October 7, 2026, 10:20 am

Story
    Meet Milly Mia - an 8-year-old, 12-pound, Shih Tzu mix with a sweet smiling face and a heart that seems permanently set to “happy.”    Milly greets the world like an old friend - outgoing, easygoing, and genuinely glad to see whoever walks through the door. She is a professional “snuggler," who would rather curl up beside you than chase a ball. Calm and content, she thrives on quiet companionship and is already crate trained, so she settles in without fuss.    Kids, cats, big dogs, and little dogs are all welcome company; she loves everyone and moves through a busy household with gentle ease. Milly Mia is still polishing her potty skills and will do best with a patient adopter who can keep a steady routine while she finishes learning. In return, she offers constant affection, a soft presence on the couch, and the kind of cheerful loyalty that makes a house feel like home.    If you are looking for a small, loving, companion who prefers lap time to long hikes, Milly Mia is ready to be yours.
