More about Nyles

A SWEET & HANDSOME GUY:  Approx. 5 years old / Approx. 34 lbs. Hi, my name’s Nyles – a wonderful, handsome fellow with lots of love to share!  I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I couldn’t be happier to be part of the Mostly Mutts family!  I hear that once you are a Mostly Mutt, you take the next step to getting a wonderful home of your very own.  I am all on board for that!  ·   OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and did not like them, and I avoided the dog in my temp. foster home.  I’ll be tested again in the future, but for now, I should be your only dog. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met children yet at Mostly Mutts, but I would do best with kids ages 10 and older who understand not to approach me while I’m eating, as I guard my food.      ·   PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a sweet and loving boy who may be a little timid at first, but with gentle patience, I warm up and let my friendly side shine.  Even though bath time made me a bit nervous, I tried my best - I walked nicely in and out of the paw spa, tolerated everything well, and was the sweetest boy for my ear cleaning.  All I really need is a little kindness to feel safe and loved. / Energy Level: 4-6.      ·   SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program and have already mastered the ‘sit’ and ‘come’ commands and I look forward to learning more. / I do well in my crate at Mostly Mutts, however, there were two bite incidents in the past when I was mistakenly put back in my crate while my food bowl was inside, as I do guard my food as well as human food if it is near. This issue has since been addressed and resolved, and my trainer will be happy to go over this with you and answer any questions.  / My potty habits were good in my temp. foster home. ·   LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love spending time with the nice volunteers, following all the interesting smells, snuggling up with the volunteers on the bench at MM and with the nice people in my temp. foster home, as well as getting some good butt scratches.  I also enjoy a good game of fetch with the tennis ball and playing with toys.  / Other than not liking anyone near my food and getting startled at strange noises, 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 moderate tartar on my teeth, so my adoptive family should consult with their vet and consider a dental cleaning in the future. I’m a sweet guy looking for a great family and home!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
