A SWEET LITTLE LOVEBUG:  Approx. 5 years old / Approx. 9 lbs. Hello – I’m Rylie!  I came to Mostly Mutts with three other doggies from a very neglectful situation. My first stop was animal control, where they began getting me the vetting and good care I desperately needed. Mostly Mutts then jumped in and – while it has taken awhile to get me feeling good again, I am now doing great and am ready to meet my new family and live the good life all doggies deserve. I was adopted for about a month, but it wasn’t a good fit, so I’m back with Mostly Mutts and in a wonderful foster home while I wait to find my furever family! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I really like the dogs in my foster home as well as the dogs I met in my temporary home, and I came to Mostly Mutts with other dogs that I also liked. If you have a nice dog at home already, let’s meet! / I’ve not shown any interest in the cats in my foster home, other than just sniffing them. All cats are different, so I’m not sure how I’d do with another kitty. / I enjoy the company of the teenagers who live in my foster home, so let’s meet and best no toddlers or small children that may fall on me.  • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a very sweet and gentle, initially shy girl who will be your loyal lap dog!  I’m friendly, happy-natured and quite playful. I will delight you with body wiggles and tail wags and I’m sure you will love me and want to spend lots of time with me. / Energy level: 3-5.   • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I don’t currently know any commands, but perhaps you can teach me some. Mostly Mutts offers free lifetime training classes for all their adopted dogs, so let’s take some of those together. / I do really well in a crate, but I haven’t really needed to be crated for long in my foster home. I’ve shown that I’m good at being out alone, if need be, and I sleep in the bed with my fosters at nighttime. / My potty habits have been coming along in my foster home with a few accidents still. I do pretty well on a set schedule, though I don’t alert that I need to go. My fosters take me out when I get up in morning, right after breakfast, at lunchtime, right after dinner and right before bed – with perhaps another outing during the day. Keeping me on a good schedule will help me master my potty skills.  • LIKES/DISLIKES:  I love food and snuggling right next you as well as following my people around to keep them company. I also like to play with my people and I love to lie in the sun on the back deck and sunbathe. / I am not a fan of car rides, and outside sounds (lawn mowers, leaf blowers, etc.) tend to startle me. Otherwise, I’m sure I would not like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL:  I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I’m on a seizure medication which is working well for me, and I should stay on it as well as an over-the-counter joint supplement called Cosequin. I needed a good dental cleaning when I arrived and have had that now with a few teeth pulled.  I am looking for a family who will make me a much-loved family member and take great care of me!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
