Story
A BIG, LOVABLE GUY: Approx. 9 years old / 107 lbs. & needs to lose a lot of weight! Hi, my name is Goliath! I was with Mostly Mutts back in 2019 when I was adopted and thought I found my furever home. Unfortunately, that was not the case due to no fault at all of mine! Thankfully, I worked my way back to Mostly Mutts from animal control and have once again become a favorite of the shelter volunteers! I’m currently in the prison/foster training program off site working on losing weight, because I was clearly fed way too much food! I have close to 25 lbs. to lose – so here I go! Please inquire at 770-272-6888 to find out when I'm available to meet. • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I previously liked other dogs I met while with MM’s and I will be meeting dogs in the prison/foster training program – so stay tuned. / Cats unknown. / I also previously liked kids, but haven’t met kids since returning to MM’s, so if you have kids let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: It is no accident that the volunteers love me, and they describe me as ‘a total love who is sweet and wonderful’ with a gentle, friendly nature. What’s not to love? I’m super social with the volunteers. I’m a big guy with the potential to be a strong puller but I have had nice walking manners and I’m just so happy to be with you! Loving and affectionate, I readily accept love and give it in return. / My energy level is 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I am currently in the prison, foster training program and a student in the Mostly Mutts University training program, where I look forward to losing the weight I need to lose and learning some commands while I’m here too. I already know several commands: ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘stay’ and ‘come’. Check back soon to see what else I have learned. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. Just be sure my crate is an extra-large one! / My potty habits have been good on the shelter schedule so hopefully that will be the case in my new home too. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I enjoy soaking up attention and love those butt scratches and having my handsome coat brushed. Being with people makes me happy, and I will whine when people are nearby as if to say, ‘Look at me – I’m ready to be your buddy!’ / 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 my annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I came back to MM’s with ear infections which have been treated, and what seems to be chronic skin allergies, so I’m getting medicated baths twice a week which can be done in my new home. I have minimal tartar on my molars, so my adoptive family should consult with their vet and consider a dental cleaning in the future. I am looking for a great family to give me a loving home for the rest of my life! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.January 31, 2025, 1:02 pm
