Meet Tinsley
A VERY SWEET GIRL: Approx. 2 years old / Approx. 30 lbs. Hi, my name’s Tinsley! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I am so happy to be part of the Mostly Mutts family. I’m in a great foster home now, and I’m really looking forward to finding my furever loving family. I hear it’s time for me to do that now – so excited! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I haven’t met other dogs at Mostly Mutts or in my foster home yet, so let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I like to spend time with the kids in my foster home (ages 5-16). I do get excited when I think they have food and like to jump up. I also get a little mouthy when I’m excited, so – best no toddlers or very young kids that I may accidentally bump over or be too much for and of course, let’s meet! • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a very sweet and loving girl who equally enjoys being close to my people, both inside and outside. I can be a little nervous and anxious at first, so please give me a little extra time to settle in and feel like I’m home. I’m affectionate and happily gave kisses after my shelter bath which was so adorable. I have a typical Lab curiosity and playfulness, and my foster family says that I’m a great dog! / My energy level is 5-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I’m a smart girl and know ‘sit’, ‘down’, and ‘shake’ (50% of the time), so I’m still working on mastering those. I also ‘come’ when called most of the time. I bet you can finish teaching me these skills and even more! I am also great on a leash, so let’s take some wonderful walks together. / I vocalize a little when I don’t want to be in the crate, but it’s coming along with time and patience. / I’m having accidents in my foster home, so I will need you to help me master my potty skills using a consistent schedule and positive reinforcement. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I really like my walks and enjoy running, so if you are looking for an exercise buddy – I could be your girl! I absolutely love to be with my people – just hanging out and soaking up attention. At playtime, I like to alternate between squeaky toys and chew toys. I LOVE mealtimes and eat a little too enthusiastically, so a slow feeder bowl helps keep me from getting a tummy ache from eating too fast. / I’m startled by strange house noises (garage doors, etc.). Otherwise, 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 great home with a loving, furever family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
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.
