AN ACTIVE & FUN FRIEND: Approx. 5 years old / Approx. 44 lbs.
Hi, my name is Victor! Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I am so happy to be soaking up all the love and attention from the volunteers. They are here every day to be sure I am a happy, healthy guy ready to meet my new family. Well, that time has come, and I am ready for my 'happily ever after'. Come meet me soon! I got to participate in the prison/foster training program and learned a lot!
· OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and do not like them, so I'd like to be your only dog. / Cats unknown. / I met a nice boy and a girl around 10 years old at Mostly Mutts and I was a bit all over them in a happy & excited way - being a bit mouthy and chasing them when they ran, so kids 15+ may be a better match for me. Let's meet! Also, it would be best that kids do not walk me due to my strength and dislike for other dogs.
· PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I am a super active and fun guy with a friendly and playful demeanor. My affectionate nature has charmed the volunteers, and they refer to me as 'a super sweet boy'. In fact, my whole-body wags with excitement when I know it's my turn to spend time with them. I am a perfect angel for bathtime, calm as can be, soaking up all the one-on-one time and my bather says I have the most beautiful eyes. I can get a little mouthy when I'm excited, and that playful behavior has occasionally resulted in some unintentional, never-to-be-mean skin grabs. I'm very easy to redirect, and the trainers will happily show you the techniques that work with me. Social, loving and energetic, I'd be happiest with an owner that matches my energy level and has time to be active with me. / My energy level is 6-8+, so let's be active and have fun together!
· 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 using my gentle leader as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. I also know some silly commands such as 'bang bang' and I 'play dead'. Mostly Mutts offers free lifetime training classes for all their adopted dogs, so let's continue my training together. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts as well as in the three temp. foster homes I visited. / I had good potty habits in the prison/foster training program, as well as in three temp. fosters home I visited, alerting them when I needed to go potty, so hopefully that will be the case in my new home, too!
· LIKES/DISLIKES: I love people and enjoy any activity with them - the more activity the better! Affectionate and loving, I also put energy into giving kisses, cuddles and happy tail wags, and I'm a big fan of belly rubs and playing with toys, especially balls, rope toys and bones. I love to get my energy out by playing with tennis balls in the play yard with the volunteers. Cheese and peanut butter make for some yummy snacks in my book. I also like to go for car rides, so let's go lots of fun places together! / I don't care for other dogs, sirens, aerosol sprays or thunder (but the vacuum and hairdryer noises don't bother me) and I'm not too sure about motorcycles passing so perhaps a quieter walking area would be nice. I can't think of any other dislikes, though 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. I have experienced a few allergy flare-ups and Mostly Mutts has recently started me on an allergy medication called Zenrelia to help with that. Just ask about this to see how it's working for me. My ears get sensitive at times, as I have had ear infections in the past, but I do well for my ear cleanings, so please monitor this. I have luxating patellas in my rear legs which do not require surgery at this time. At times I limp, but I don't let it slow me down as I'm very active, and I've started an anti-inflammatory medication to help, so just ask about this! I am looking for a wonderful home with a loving family for life! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I'm located in Kennesaw, Ga.
