More about Casanova

AN ACTIVE & FUN PUP:  Approx. 7-8 months old / Approx. 24 lbs. & growing Hello – I’m Casanova!  Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I am so happy to be on the journey to my new home with their help.  I recently spent time in a great temporary foster home, where I got a glimpse of the great life that awaits me in a home of my very own.  I also spent some time in the prison/foster training program off-site and learned a lot!  Plan to come meet me soon and see if I am your new furry family member! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I met dogs at Mostly Mutts and liked them, however, I am a food guarder and should be fed separately.  The amazing trainers in the prison/foster training program have helped me with my guarding, and I’ve made great progress.  I can now share toys and take treats next to another dog.  My MM trainer would be happy to show you this and I hope to continue improving.  If you have a friendly dog who would enjoy a young companion and if you are comfortable keeping food separate and following the protocols that MM has established for me, let’s meet! / Cats unknown but remember we must eat and snack separately. / I haven’t met kids yet, so if you have kids that are old enough to understand my food guarding, let’s meet.  I am thinking teens and up would be best.  • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I am a very active and friendly guy who wiggled and wagged my whole body when I saw my foster – adorable!  I’m not shy about registering my opinion about things that bother me and I did find my voice in my temp. foster home, so best no apartment/condo type home.  I’m a young dog so I am still exploring the world and using my mouth, though I do respond to correction.  Fun and playful, I will bring lots of love and adventure to my new home. / My energy level is 7-9 and I will need my furever family to understand my breed as I’m a working breed dog well as my need for regular exercise. • 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 as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. Let's continue my training as there are more classes I can take through the free lifetime training that Mostly Mutts offers for their rescue dogs.  Still playfully mouthy, I do love to nibble on pants, ankles and shoes.  Luckily, this is very easily corrected now that my trainer has taught me the ‘leave it’ command. / My crate manners were good in my foster home. / My potty habits have been good on the prison/foster training program’s schedule. • LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love large rope toys. They are great for tug-o-war and for burning up energy.  Once I am all tuckered out, I love a comfy dog bed for recharging my batteries.  I would like a dog savvy owner who understands my working breed and is ready to get some regular exercise together!  I’m sure we’ll discover lots of other things we will enjoy doing together. / I was afraid of my reflection in the mirror or in windows, but my foster showed me it was all good.  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 my immunizations, micro-chipped and neutered.   If you’re ready for the fun and excitement of having a puppy as well as the training commitment, then let’s meet! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
