About this Dog
A PLAYFUL & SILLY FRIEND: Approx. 8 years old / Approx. 49 lbs. Hi, I’m Bolton! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control. I don’t remember my past, but it seems clear that I didn’t live an easy life. Well, the day I was rescued began my second chance and I’m happy about that! I’m looking for a kind and loving family who’s ready to welcome a loyal and loving companion into their lives. I spent some time in the prison/foster training program off site and learned a lot! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I recently met dogs at Mostly Mutts, and in my temporary foster home and I was friendly with them. I enjoy a game of tag with other dogs, running towards them then away from them hoping they will chase me. If you have a nice doggie at home who loves to play, let’s meet and see if we can be pals. / No cats in my new home please, as I like to chase them. / I met nice kids around 10 years old at Mostly Mutts and liked them, so kids 10+ in my new home could be a good fit for me. Let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I'm sweet, gentle, and a little goofy. I love sniffing around — I'm a hound, after all — and I’m always curious and ready to use my nose to explore. I can be playful and silly, but I’m just as happy to chill and relax with you. I am a happy boy, and my temp. foster described me as a sweet pup who ‘lights up every room I walk into.’ I would love to brighten your day as well! I’m aware of my size, so I don’t play too roughly or knock anything over while playing. I’m a good boy for my baths, so that’s a plus, too! / Energy level: 6-8. • 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 using my gentle leader as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts and in the prison/foster training program. In my temp. foster home, I didn’t really need one and I’d prefer to be with you. / I had good potty habits in the prison/foster training program, as well as in temp. foster homes I’ve visited, so hopefully that will be the case in my new home, too! • LIKES/DISLIKES: I may be 8 years old, but I have a puppy energy at heart! I love toys and playing (especially outside!), so let’s have some fun play times together. I also love to go on daytrips with the nice volunteers, but I have chewed several leashes in half while in the car, so please be aware of this and keep me safe in another way. Maybe a chain leash and harness when in a car? My trainer may have some other ideas so please ask about this. I recently went on a day trip to Home Depot and the MM Market with some nice volunteers, and I enjoyed greeting lots of nice people, kids, and dogs. It’s so fun to go places together! / I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I came in with some thin fur in a few areas. I am done with my medicated baths now and my skin and fur are looking great. I also came to MM very skinny but have gained weight with proper nutrition. My tummy has been a bit sensitive, so I’ve started eating a prescription food called Hill’s Science Diet w/d Multi-Benefit to help with that – so just ask about this. I have mild/moderate tartar on my teeth, so my adoptive family should consult with their vet and consider a dental cleaning in the future. I’m looking for a great family to show me the love and care I missed out on before being rescued. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

Adopt Bolton and Receive Bolton's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Bolton's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Bolton's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Bolton, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Bolton's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Bolton was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Bolton’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Bolton’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Bolton’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
