Meet Jessica

A LOVING COMPANION:  Approx. 5 years old / Approx. 20 lbs. Hi, my name’s Jessica!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and – though I was a bit unsure at first, it didn’t take long for the love and attention from the volunteers to ease my fears and let me know I am in a good place … SO good, in fact, that they are going to help me find a new family to love and be loved by.  Isn’t that awesome?  Come meet me soon! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I haven’t met other dogs at Mostly Mutts yet, so let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I liked the kids I spent time with in my short break foster home (ages 4-15).  So, if you have kids, let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over or that may fall on me. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a super sweet girl who has been nothing but calm and cuddly with the volunteers.  I spent a few days in a foster home recently and – boy – did I love being with the people there!  In fact, I earned the title of ‘Velcro dog’.  I was super well-behaved for my shelter bath and nail trim, sitting calmly and loving the attention.  I’m happiest when I am with you!  Affectionate and loving, you will quickly see why the volunteers call me a ‘doll baby’. / My energy level is 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  As I have gained confidence, my leash skills have improved nicely, and I know the ‘sit’ command. I’m sure you can teach me lots more, so – let’s train! / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. / My potty habits have been good on the shelter schedule (as well as in the home I recently visited). • LIKES/DISLIKES:  More than anything, I love being with my people.  I’ve not shown much interest in toys yet, but I bet if my person starts playing with them, I may become interested in them, too!  In the meantime, Sweetness is my name, and cuddling is my game!  Belly rubs are the best, and I am always ready for those.  I just want to love and be loved. / I’m pretty sensitive to loud noises, which startle me and make me a flight risk.  As I gain more confidence in my new home, this may subside, but just be aware of my dislike of noise and fast movements. Otherwise, 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 spayed. I am looking for a loving home where I will be a cherished family member!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
