LOOKING FOR MY PERSON: Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 32 lbs. & needs to gain a bit more weight
Hello, my name is Britta! I came to the Mostly Mutts family from animal control. I was very scared and timid when I arrived, but the volunteers took their time with me and allowed me the space I needed to feel safe. Soon, I went to a great foster home, where I have been loving life and have established trust with my person there. My foster has learned a lot about me and has also worked with a Mostly Mutts trainer and I’ve come a long way. They will be happy to talk with you and share my successes and what works best for me.
• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: Though I did well with the neighbor dog when we met at the chain link fence in my foster home, my foster noticed that I am dog reactive when on my walks. I also met dogs at Mostly Mutts and showed my teeth and growled at them, so I do not want to live with another dog. / I’ve not met cats, but I demonstrate a strong prey drive in my foster’s backyard (squirrels, chipmunks, etc.), so I probably should not live with cats. / I haven’t met kids yet and I am quite skittish around people, in general, so I think older kids such as calm teens may be a fit for me – of course we would want to meet and see how we do together.
• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: My foster describes me as ‘one of the sweetest, gentlest dogs you could ever meet’. However, as mentioned above, I’m very skittish around people. My foster had a friend come visit, and it took me two weeks to accept affection from them, such as some nice petting. I have become less reactive with people, but I do still bark and growl defensively if someone I don’t know enters the house or yard. I would likely do best with a dog savvy owner that I can bond with and call ‘my person’ and I am not an apartment/condo type dog. I love running and jumping in my foster’s yard. My foster thinks I would be great as an agility dog. Let’s build a course in our backyard and get going on my training! / My energy level is 4-6.
• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: My foster is working with a trainer and can verify the fact that I am very smart and that my command training has been easy. So far, I’ve learned the ‘sit’ and ‘stay’ commands, and I have good door etiquette. I’m currently working on the ‘down’ and ‘give paw’ commands. / I do NOT like being in a crate and tore up a sleeping pad when my foster left me in there. The good news is that I haven’t needed to be crated in my foster home, as I’ve done fine with having the run of the house and haven’t destroyed anything. At bedtime in my foster home, I usually start out sleeping on the sofa but often end up at the foot of my foster’s bed. / My potty habits have been very good in my foster home.
• LIKES/DISLIKES: I am a one-person type of dog, (typical of my breed) so I enjoy being near my person though I am not cuddly (also typical of my breed). I love my outside time in my foster’s large, fenced yard. I leap around the yard like a gazelle at lightning speed a couple times a day and then I enjoy lounging in the yard while I stay alert to furry intruders. I’ll keep the yard critter-free for you! Having a secure fence in my new home is an absolute must for me, as I will want to spend a good bit of time outside with my person – my ‘happy place’. I like to meander while on my walks and will often stop to stare down squirrels, etc. My foster has discovered that I will often move forward if you tap me on the shoulder, but if I want to hang out somewhere, you need something to read while waiting on me - lol. I enjoy Nylabones, other chew bones, and tummy rubs from my chosen person too! For occasional treats I like doggie chicken jerky and a homemade air fried Liverwurst snack that my foster makes. / I’m not a dog that would be happy spending most of my time indoors, so having the opportunity for frequent ‘yard time’ visits with my person would make my day. Otherwise, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough attention, exercise, and training.
• MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed.
I am looking for a great home with a patient and dog-savvy owner as I am not a first-time kind of dog! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
