Critter Details

A SWEET LITTLE LOVE BUG:  Approx. 6 years old / Approx. 4.5 lbs. & needs to gain a little weight Hi, my name is Giggles!  I had a home, but my family no longer had time to give me the care and attention all doggies deserve, so Mostly Mutts is going to help me find a new family to love.  I’ve just gone into a foster home, so there will be even more information about me soon.   • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I reportedly liked the other dogs I met while in my previous home, so if you have a nice dog already, let’s meet and see if we can be pals. / I did well with cats in my previous home. / My previous owner reported that I liked the teenager that I lived with.  I did guard a person who was carrying me at the shelter, so teens will likely be best in my new home, let’s meet.   • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I was a bit confused when my world suddenly changed so I was understandably scared.  I’ve been warming up to the nice volunteers at MM and even found some favorites before going into my foster home.  I did start to do some people guarding when being carried and when a person approached whom I didn’t know. Not carrying me around could help with this.  In general, I have a sweet and gentle nature and am friendly and very loving. Since I’m so small, please be sure my harness is well-fitted, so I don’t get loose or lost as I am tiny! / My energy level is 3-5. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I don’t have any particular skills right now so perhaps you can teach me some great doggie commands, but I am an expert at loving my people! / My crate manners have been good at Mostly Mutts. / I had some accidents in my previous home, but I was alone for a pretty long day – which is a lot for a little dog.  I've also been having some accidents on the shelter schedule.  Please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills. Also, I’m very tiny, so please stay close to me in our yard as I may attract birds of prey due to my size.  • LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love being with my people and I love being a cherished family member. / I can’t think of any dislikes, other than what’s mentioned above, but I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, and training. • MEDICAL:  I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped, spayed.  I just had a good dental cleaning, so my mouth is fresh again!  I have luxating patellas in both rear legs which can be common in a lot of little dogs, and don’t need treatment at this time.  I am looking for a loving home where I will be a cherished family member!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
