Meet Kira
A FUN & ACTIVE PUPPY: Approx. 4 – 5 months old / Approx. 20 lbs. & growing Hi, my name is Kira! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I have been soaking up all the love and attention from the volunteers while I wait for my new family to find me. The volunteers bring me joy, and I return the favor. I can’t wait to do the same with my new family! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met some other dogs at Mostly Mutts and though I was a tad timid and shy, I did start to interact with them after a little time, so if you have a nice doggie that would like a puppy friend, let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a volunteer favorite! They describe me as ‘friendly, happy and sweet’. An affectionate and fun-spirited puppy, I seem to adjust to new situations well. For instance, during my shelter bath, I was initially afraid to be in the tub, but then had fun drinking from the water sprayer and leaned back for a shampoo belly rub. Playful and friendly, I am sure to bring lots of joy to my new family! / My energy level is 5-7. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I am a student in the Mostly Mutts University training program, where I am learning lots of great commands with my trainer. I am a good student and have already mastered the ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘stay’, ‘come’ and ‘leave it’ commands. Check back soon to see what else I have learned. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. / I've been having some accidents on the shelter schedule, but – for a puppy – I am making good progress. Please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I like toys and being a typical puppy - I love play time! I’m on board for all the belly rubs, too. I look forward to making fun memories with my new family! / I can’t think of things I don’t like yet since I’m young, but I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL: I've started my puppy shots, but you will have to finish these for me as I grow. I’m also micro-chipped and spayed. If you’re ready for the fun and excitement of having a puppy as well as the training commitment, then let’s meet! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
Adoption Process
Mostly Mutts Animal Rescue & Adoption's Adoption Process
Our facility is currently open to the public Monday-Saturday, 11-3. We welcome you to come meet our adoptable Mutts & Kitties! Please keep in mind the following:
Many of our adoptable Mutts & Kitties are in foster homes, so please call 770-272-6888 to find out if the pet you are interested in is at our facility. With an approved application we can set up meet & greets and adoptions with a pet in foster care.
We are not yet up to full ‘staffing’ following the pandemic, so there may be times when we cannot do meet & greets or process an application on the spot.
The best first step is to submit an application via www.mostlymutts.org.
Our adoption counselors are happy to help make a great match for you and your family!
