About This Dog
HANDSOME, SWEET & FUN: Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 18 lbs. Hi, I'm Lexington! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and am so glad to be here. I was adopted, but it turned out that living with cats just wasn't the right fit for me. So, I'm …
What WeRescue Scout knows about Lexington
Lexington is a cuddly, affectionate boy who thrives in a home with older children (11+) and ideally no cats or small animals due to his prey drive. A house with a yard and patient owners who understand his selective dog friendships and occasional leash reactivity would be his perfect match.
Best suited to homes with children aged 11+
Good to know
- Not safe with cats; has strong prey drive.
- Not suitable for homes with young children under age 11; has history of resource-guarding nip with a 7-year-old.
- Selective about dog companions and reactive to other dogs on leash; ideally a one-pet home or introduction facilitated by foster.
- Cries and barks when left alone; not recommended for apartments or condos due to noise concerns.
- Housetrain-in-progress; needs consistent leash-walk outdoor potty routine to manage distractibility from wildlife.

Adoption Process
Mostly Mutts Animal Rescue & Adoption's 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.
We are not yet up to full ‘staffing’ following the pandemic, so there may be times when we cannot do meet & greets or process an application on the spot.
The best first step is to submit an application via www.mostlymutts.org.
Our adoption counselors are happy to help make a great match for you and your family!
Adoption Info:
Adoptions are being scheduled for approved applicants, by appointment only.
Please submit an application through our website at www.mostlymutts.org if you are interested in one of our adoptable pets. We are receiving a large volume of applications and processing may take a little bit longer than normal. We are grateful for your interest, and an adoption counselor will be in touch as quickly as possible. Please give us 48 hours to respond before sending a follow-up email.
Don’t see a dog or cat for you on the website? Submit the application anyway!! We are taking in a large number of dogs and cats weekly. Due to the overwhelming demand, many are matched with approved applicants prior to being posted online. Our adoption counselors will be happy to help make a great match for you and your family.
Thank you for your patience and support!
