Description:
A FUN & LOVABLE GUY: Approx. 7 years old / Approx. 14 lbs. Hi, my name’s Cullen! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and boy I’m grateful for the good care I am getting here. I came in with a lot of fur loss and skin issues as well as ear infections due to neglect. I’m also heartworm positive, but I'll be treated for that soon. Some time has passed now and I’m coming along so well – healing and just so happy! I have some decreased hearing, possibly from the previously untreated ear infections, but I don’t let it bother me at all! I’m now ready to meet my new family and live a great life with them! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts, and I liked playing with them a lot! I was also friendly with the neighbor’s dog in my previous foster home and wanted to play and engage with them through the fence. If you have a dog that would love a playful friend, let’s meet, though I can’t play with them until after I’ve recovered from my heartworm treatment. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that may fall on me. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a cuddly and affectionate guy with a very happy demeanor. A social fellow, the volunteers describe me as ‘fun, busy, darling and lovable’ with a personality that is ‘beyond cute’, so be ready to have your heart stolen. I’ll alert you to people at the door and sometimes on walks, though I have been very friendly when they approach me. / My energy level is 5-7. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I am a student in the Mostly Mutts University training program, where I look forward to learning lots of great commands with my trainer. I have mastered the ‘sit’ command and look forward to learning even more. Check back soon to see my progress. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts, though I would rather be with people, and I loved sleeping in my foster’s bed in my previous foster home. It would be nice if I could do that in my new home, too. / I've been having accidents on the shelter schedule, though my previous foster said I was really starting to catch on with my potty habits with them. Please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I like snuggling, being picked up and those great belly rubs! Treats are great, and I also enjoy running around and playing, though I won’t be able to do that until I’ve fully recovered from my heartworm treatment. I’m curious while out and about and enjoy my walks. Car rides are fun, and I do well on them, so – let’s ride! / 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 neutered. Unfortunately, my previous owner did not keep me on a heartworm preventative, and I've tested heartworm positive. Mostly Mutts is covering the cost of my treatment for this at the end of March/beginning of April 2025, then I’ll need a month of rest while I recover. I can still be adopted during this time and could rest in my new home. I have some decreased hearing that doesn’t bother me, and I hope you won’t mind either. I’m getting medicated baths while my fur continues to grow in, and these can be done in my new home. I am looking for a wonderful family who will see me through my heartworm treatment and love me for life! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
