A FUN & ACTIVE FRIEND FOR YOU: Approx. 7 years old / Approx. 22 lbs. & needs to lose a little weight
Hello – I’m Howie! Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and – it was clear that I had not been well cared for in my previous life for quite a while, and as I was so matted, I needed to be completely shaved. Boy – do I feel better now! I was also fed too much and need to lose a bit of weight to be my best! I’ve started the doggie salt free green bean diet to help with this. I am getting great care while I wait to meet my new family. Is that you? Come meet me soon and find out!
• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I want to be your only dog as I do not want to share my people with other dogs, and I was not nice to a dog in a temp. home! I did meet a couple of dogs at Mostly Mutts and did alright with them as there were no bonded people involved, but I should not live with other dogs. / Cats unknown but I don’t think so since I don’t want to share my people. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so if you have much older kids such as teens, let’s meet. I am a bit playfully mouthy, and I do take treats roughly at the moment, so best no young kids as I may not want to share my people with little children.
• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a very sweet guy with a friendly demeanor. I am always happy to see the nice volunteers and I look forward to being playful and active with you. I can be a bit of a tripping hazard, as I zig zag when I walk, so I should not be walked by someone with mobility issues. / My energy level is 5-7.
• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I am a student in the Mostly Mutts University, where I look forward to learning lots of great commands with my trainer. I know the ‘sit’ command and would enjoy learning even more – especially because treats are involved. In fact, I‘m a bit to grabby with them, so my trainer is working on that with me on that. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. / I've been having accidents on the shelter schedule. Please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills.
• LIKES/DISLIKES: I like my walks and regular walks will help me meet my weight loss goals, so … lace up those sneakers and let’s GO! Toys are pretty fun, but I especially love attention and being active with people. I look forward to being a great companion. / I can’t think of any dislikes, though I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training.
• MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I just had a dental cleaning with 3 teeth pulled, so my mouth is fresh again!
I am looking for a home where I will be a much-loved member of the family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
