Story
ACTIVE, FUN & READY FOR ADVENTURE: Approx. 5 years old / Approx. 29 lbs. Hi, my name is Clay! I joined the Mostly Mutts family when they rescued me from animal control. I’m keeping the volunteers on their toes with my energetic personality. Always on the move and ready for adventure, I look forward to being active with my new family. Let’s exercise together! I get to go to a short break foster home from time to time and I enjoy that. I also got to spend some time in the prison/foster training program where I had a great time and learned a lot, too! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I recently met dogs in the prison/foster training program, and I was friendly with them. If you have a nice doggie at home already, let’s meet and see if we can be pals. / I met a kitty at Mostly Mutts, and we all agree that I should not live with cats. / I get excited about my toys and sometimes try to grab at them, so older teens (15+) may be best. I have done well changing this behavior when my trainer tells me to ‘wait’, and I hold my ‘sit’. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m an active and enthusiastic guy who is playful and ready for fun. If it’s playtime, I am all in and I see many things as toys, so I’ll toss them all around to play! I was well-mannered for my bath, so it was a breeze. I’m a people dog who greets the volunteers with unbridled joy. I’ve shown some guarding behaviors of my person, and my trainer has worked with me on this, so just ask about that please. / My energy level is 8-10, so I am looking for an active family member to help me direct my energy with fun adventures. I also really need a fenced-in yard in my new home to be successful given my energy level for some fun playtimes with you. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I am a student in the Mostly Mutts University training program, where I’ve mastered the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘come’, ‘place’, ‘leave it’ and ‘down’ commands. I also accept friendly strangers without jumping, utilize proper door etiquette and walk nicely on a leash. I had to work on my toy sharing manners, as I am obsessed with my toys (especially tennis balls). My trainer has taught me how to exchange my toys for a treat. I am also doing well with the ‘wait’ command for this behavior. / I can be a bit jumpy getting out of my kennel, as I am super excited to be with the volunteers. / My potty habits were good on the prison/foster training program schedule. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love being with people and am enthusiastic when they come to spend time with me. I also really love tennis balls, the XL red plastic ball in the MM play yard and squeaky toys. I’m excited for mealtime, so the volunteers have me using a slow feeder, which is good for the digestion of fast eaters. I would like a fenced-in yard in my new home, to help me work out some of the extra energy that I have with you. / I can’t think of any other dislikes besides those mentioned above but 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 am looking for a fun-loving family who is dedicated to spending the time with me necessary to meet my energy needs! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
