Meet Kalista

AN ABSOLUTE SWEETHEART:  Approx. 3 years old / Approx. 25 lbs. Hi, my name is Kalista!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I am happy to be part of the Mostly Mutts family.  Unfortunately, I soon came down with pneumonia – but, with the great care and attention from the vet and volunteers at Mostly Mutts, I’ve made a complete recovery and am ready to meet my new family! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I met some other dogs at Mostly Mutts, and I have a more dominant nature with other dogs.  I may try to mount them and bark upon meeting, so if you have a dog at home that doesn’t mind letting me be the dominant dog in the family, let’s meet and see if we can be friends. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over.     • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m an active and friendly girl with an interesting color/coat that is sure to catch your eye.  I have a playful nature, and the volunteers have noted how affectionate I am and that I enjoy being held and loved.  I also showed my wonderful nature during my shelter bath as I was a good girl.  My reputation as a snuggle bug precedes me, so come find out how sweet I am! / My energy level is 5-7, so I would like to do some regular activities with my family – let’s have fun!   • 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’ve already mastered several commands: ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘stay’, ‘come’ and ‘leave it’.  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, so please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills. • LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love to spend time with people and get excited when I see the volunteers heading my way with a leash because I know it’s time to have fun and go for a walk with them.  I also love toys and hope that there are lots in my new home!  When it’s snuggle time, I love nothing more than being held and loved on. / I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL:  I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I am looking for a great home with a loving family for life!   My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
