BreedDachshund / Jack Russell TerrierSexMaleSizeSmallAgeAdult

A SWEET LITTLE FELLOW: Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 15 lbs. Hi there, I’m Amos! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control and I’m very happy to be here getting the good care and love I desire. I got to spend about 5 days in a temporary foster home and had a lot of fun there! Now I’m back at the shelter and ready to meet my new family, hopefully soon! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and did not care for them, so I’ll want to be your only dog. / Cats unknown, though I do have a strong prey drive. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no toddlers that may fall on me. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a cute little shortie with adorable brown splotches all over me and a curious, sweet personality. Initially, I was nervous and timid, and the bathtub was pretty scary for me, so I hugged the side for reassurance, but once it was over, I rewarded my bather with lots of tail wags, sweetness, and I happily walked back down the hallway. In my temp. foster home, I really showed my true colors and was described as a perfect gentleman, a good sidekick, and snuggle bug. I enjoyed being close to the family and I do have a bit of a prey drive when I’m out exploring the yard. Overall, I’m a sweet, fun little guy who blossoms when given a chance to feel safe and comfortable. Since coming back to the shelter, I am a bit stressed again and think that nothing will beat being in a great furever home! / Energy level: 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I know the ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘stay’, ‘come’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands so far and I also accept friendly strangers without jumping on them. 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 and were also good in my temp. foster home. / My potty manners have been very good at Mostly Mutts as well as in my temp. foster home. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love snuggling, being petted, eating tasty doggie treats, and learning new things - as you can tell from the list of commands I already know. I’m a smart guy who enjoys using my brain and continuing to learn. I also enjoy being outside with my family, whether we're going for walks, running around the yard, or just spending time together. / Other than other dogs, I can’t think of any dislikes, though like all dogs, 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’m a smart and wonderful little dog looking for a wonderful family for life! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
