Description:
A WONDERFUL FRIEND: Approx. 2 years old / Approx. 34 lbs. Hello! I’m Brent! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control. I am sure to win your heart at first sight with my handsome sleek coat and unique eyes. In addition, I am simply a great dog – ready to be your new best friend! I spent some time in the prison/foster training program off site and learned a lot! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I liked playing with the 2 male, young, larger dogs in my temp. foster home. My temp. foster fed us in separate crates, but I was protective of my food and snapped toward the air at the other dogs as though I was concerned they would come after my food. Please ask my trainer about ways to help with this. I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and liked them as well, so if you have a dog at home already, let’s meet! / I did well with the laid-back kitty in my temp. foster home, just chasing occasionally, but showed no aggression. If you have a dog-friendly or dog-tolerant cat at home, let’s meet. / I really love the 5- and 8-year-old girls in my temp. foster home! I also met kids around 10 years old at Mostly Mutts and liked them too, so if you have kids around that age, let’s meet. No toddlers as I don’t seem comfortable around them, and I’m still a mouthy player. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: The volunteers describe me as a ‘friendly and curious wiggle worm’ – lol. I was sweet and calm for my shelter bath and – though I have plenty of puppy energy, my curiosity finds me sitting back and observing all the goings on at the shelter at times. Playful and loving, I am sure to bring lots of love to my new home! / My energy level is 7-8, so I’d like to be active with my family. My temp. foster said her dogs helped me tire out quickly, lol. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I’m a proud graduate of the Mostly Mutts University training program so I’ve learned the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands. I also use proper door etiquette and have good leash manners as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts and in my temp. foster home, where I was very quiet and slept through the night, although I did figure out how to get out of my crate once. / My potty manners were been very good in my temp. foster home. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I like toys (especially tennis balls!) and love it when the volunteers bring them out for a play session. After playtime, I am all about the cuddles. I like going for walks, so let’s do that together. / I got car sick several times when I went places with my temp. foster so keep a towel handy. Hopefully I’ll overcome this in time. I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I am taking an over-the-counter joint supplement (Cosequin) to help strengthen my joints as I currently favor one front leg slightly over the other. I am looking for a wonderful home with a great family! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
