About

Meet Ralph

A HAPPY & WONDERFUL FELLOW:  Approx. 7 years old / Approx. 24 lbs. Hello there, I’m Ralph!  Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I have been soaking up all the love from the great volunteers ever since.  I am heartworm positive, but Mostly Mutts is making sure I get treatment for that soon.  I now hear it’s time for me to find my new family, and that makes me SUPER happy.  Are you looking for a great fur friend?  Come meet me! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I haven’t met other dogs at Mostly Mutts yet, so let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a very sweet, calm and friendly guy with just a little bit of timidness initially, but there is no hiding my true loving nature which I reveal pretty quickly.  I have a very happy demeanor and gave lots of tail wags to and from my shelter bath – where I was super calm – loving the attention.  Playful and affection, I am ready to bring lots of love and good times to my new family! / My energy level is 3-5. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I know the ‘sit’ command, and I bet you can teach me even more. I love treats, so that should make our training sessions fun and yummy! / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. / I’ve had only a couple of accidents on the shelter schedule, so I think I’ll do well in my new home on a good schedule, too.  • LIKES/DISLIKES:  When the volunteers come to spend time with me, I am a tail-waggin’ happy guy.  I enjoy my walks with them, though I am still learning my leash manners and will sometimes zig-zag around their feet, so be careful.  When it is time to just hang out together, I LOVE those great cuddles and belly rubs.  Got toys?  Good, because I always enjoy a good play session. / I can’t think of any dislikes, though I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, 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 with their vet in mid to late June, so local adoptions only.  I sure hope to be with my new family before treatment starts. I have moderate tartar on my teeth, so my adoptive family should consult with their vet and consider a dental cleaning in the future. I am looking for a loving home with a loving family for life!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
