Bio:
Hi there! My name is Truett, and I’m a 52-pound pup with a one-of-a-kind brown and black patchwork coat and big pointy ears that love to show how I’m feeling. I think I might have some shepherd or cattle dog in me, but really, I’m just 100% good boy. I’m a young guy- still a bit awkward and growing into my legs- the people here think I’m about a year or two old.
When I first came to the shelter with my brother , life was pretty tough. I was found as a stray, and I had a painful neck infection that looked like it might have been from an embedded collar. The people here took such good care of me, and now I’m all healed up and ready to start fresh with a loving family.
I love being around people—it’s my favorite thing in the whole world! I try so hard to make my humans happy because their praise means everything to me. I didn’t know what a leash was until recently, but after just one long walk where the humans here showed me the ropes, I learned to walk right by their side like a pro.
I can be a little unsure of myself sometimes, but I’m gentle with everyone I meet and always eager to learn. I was very reliant on my brother and now I’m learning how to play with the other dogs without him by my side.
My brother already found his forever home, and I’m so happy for him. Now, I’m hoping it’s my turn to find a family who will love me, praise me, and help me become the best version of myself.
Could that be you? If you think we might be a match, I can’t wait to meet you! Let’s go for a walk and see where it leads.

He is currently in a high-kill shelter in Georgia and urgently needs our help! He needs an ADOPTER or a temporary FOSTER home so he can catch a ride with Mutt Life Dog Rescue of Wisconsin on Saturday, January 11th, 2025 to Cedarburg, Wisconsin. If nobody steps up for him, he will be left behind in the shelter, and we don't want him to miss this important chance for a better life. Let's come together to give him the future he deserves!

Thank you for considering adopting from Mutt Life Dog Rescue of Wisconsin. We are a foster-based rescue in South Eastern Wisconsin. We partner with several high-kill shelters in rural Georgia to support dogs in desperate need of help. Our mission is to give these animals a second chance at life and the loving families they deserve. By rescuing them from shelters, we not only save their lives but also open up space for other animals in need, helping to reduce the heartbreaking number of pets that face euthanasia. Together, we can make a difference in their lives and offer them hope for a brighter future.
All dogs come with a certified vet inspection, up-to-date vaccines, flea/tick, and heart-worm preventatives. We cover partial reimbursement for spay/neuter costs if they have not already been fixed.
To apply to adopt, please fill out an adoption application on our website at (www.muttlife.org) and review the adoption requirements to ensure you meet the necessary criteria to apply!
Here is a summary of our adoption process:
1. Apply: Fill out the adoption application on our website completely and submit all necessary documents.
2. Application processing: we do a thorough background check, landlord approval (if applicable) or home ownership verification, vet check, and review your application. This process can take up to 5 business days.
3. Please authorize your vet to release medical information with Mutt Life.
4. Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.
5. Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: After approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5-day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure it's the right fit.
6. Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
7. Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via Zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
8. Neuter/spay for puppies: if dogs are adopted before 6 months of age and are not neutered/spayed yet, we will work with you to coordinate an appointment with one of our veterinary clinic partners or you can go through your vet and we will give you a partial adoption fee reimbursement.
