A PLAYFUL CUDDLER:  1 year old / 25 lbs.

Hi, my name is Charlene!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I am so thankful that Mostly Mutts decided to make me part of their rescue family.  I’ve spent some time in a foster home, as well as time at the shelter charming the volunteers, and I am ready to be someone’s great companion! 

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I got along well with the three dogs (large and small) in my short break foster home and would give ‘play bow’ to say I wanted to play. So, if you have a dog already, let’s meet! / Cats unknown / I met a nice boy and a girl around 10 years old at Mostly Mutts and liked them.  I did a lot of excited barking and jumping, but showed no aggression, so a home with kids ages 10 and up could be a good fit for me.  Let’s meet! 

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I am a super sweet, young girl with a friendly and playful nature.  In play mode, I am engaged and fun, then – when it is time to chill with my people, I am calm and ready to snuggle and nap … in my person’s lap, with the other dogs or on my own. / My energy level is 4-6.

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I showed that I know the ‘sit’ and ‘down’ commands in my short break foster home, as well as leash walking pretty well, so I bet you can teach me even more, as I am very treat motivated. / While my crate manners are fine at the shelter, I was NOT a crate fan in my short break foster home and made quite a ruckus there.  I made my way out of both the wire and plastic crates, so a doggie-proof room or possibly a baby gate could be a better and safer containment option for me – though I did chew the blinds in protest when left in a room in my short break foster home. / Ive been having some accidents, so please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills.

• LIKES/DISLIKES:  I’m an affectionate gal, so I’m very fond of cuddles.  It’s always nice to have a bully stick to chew on, as well.  When outside with my people I enjoy playing and like to take a break to lay in the sun – a favorite pastime of mine.  Inside I will cozy up to my people or with my doggie friends. /  Other than my extreme dislike of the crate, I can’t think of any dislikes, though I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise and training.

• MEDICAL:   Im current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed.

I am looking for a loving home with a wonderful family!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
