Paxton's Story

A SMART & SWEET FELLOW: Approx. 1 year old / Approx. 46 lbs. <br/><br/>Hi, I’m Paxton, but I answer to the name CJ (please refer to Paxton though when inquiring about me as that’s the name all my records are under). I was rescued from animal control as a puppy in Feb 2025 and adopted in March, but my family realized I was not a good fit for them in December as they are older and thought that I needed a younger family that will be active with me. I’m back with Mostly Mutts enjoying the company of the volunteers and waiting for my furever family to adopt me. Perhaps that’s you? I’m currently in the prison/foster training program off-site and learning a lot! Please inquire at 770-272-6888 to find out when I’m available to meet. <br/><br/>• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and liked them, so if you have a nice doggie at home already, let’s meet! / I came on too strongly for the cat in my temp. foster home, which resulted in him hissing at me. / I met two girls aged 6 and 9 in my temp. foster home and liked them, though I was a little mouthy as I can be mouthy when overstimulated, so kids aged 10+ may be best for me. <br/> <br/>• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m described as a playful, happy, fun, sweet, loving, lively and handsome fellow and I think you will agree when you meet me! I enjoy the company of the volunteers and frequently greet them with kisses! My former family reported that I may dig out from the yard, so please don’t leave me unattended until you know that I won’t do that. / My energy level is 6-8, sometimes higher and I would like a family that will be active with me.<br/><br/>• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I expect to be a Mostly Mutts University graduate very soon! So far, I’ve learned the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands. I also use proper door etiquette and accept nice strangers without jumping. I say that puts me at top of the class! / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts as well as in the prison/foster training program, and I went in there willingly in my temp. foster home. / I have good potty habits in the shelter as well as in the prison/foster training program and my two temp. foster homes.<br/><br/>• LIKES/DISLIKES: My favorite time of day is spending quality time with the nice volunteers. I also love playing with toys and balls and my former family reported that I like playing fetch, so let’s do that in my new home! I enjoyed running around my temp. foster’s big back yard and even going on a hike! / I can’t really think of any dislikes, but I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training.<br/><br/>• MEDICAL: I'm current on my annual immunizations, micro-chipped and neutered.<br/><br/>I’m a great dog looking for a great family that will spend some time being active with me daily. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
