This dog's breed isn't known, so here's general guidance for mixes.
🧠 Temperament
Pulled from the euthanasia list at the very last moment, this dignified, striking boy carries none of the weight of his past — just warmth…. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
He loves walks, gets along effortlessly with other dogs, and has a way of quietly staying by your side without asking for much. Most adult dogs do well with 30-60 minutes of walking a day plus play and sniffing time.
✂️ Grooming
Brush regularly, bathe as needed, keep nails trimmed and ears clean.
🏙️ In a NYC apartment
Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
