A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Fully grown at about 35 lbs.
Pollo is 6 years old and 35lbs. He can be a little shy and unsure of things at first, but once he’s given time to warm up he’s a complete goofball. Though Pollo greatly benefits from some structure and a gentle, patient hand, he also thrives with a go with the flow mindset. Pollo loves romping around in the park and has absolutely mastered his recall with his foster @sofiatashmandogtraining He’s a big fan of anything fun and is very easily caught in a zoomie run! He likes to play chase with his furry foster sibling and foster alike. Pollo is also super sweet and loving once he feels safe; he often gets so into pets and rubs that he’ll twist all around his foster in excitement. This guy would be an amazing hiking partner down the line! Because of his need for extra time to feel safe and comfortable with new people, Pollo needs an experienced adopter or someone willing to put in the work to earn his affection and trust.

This dog's breed isn't known, so here's general guidance for mixes.
🧠 Temperament
Pollo is also super sweet and loving once he feels safe; he often gets so into pets and rubs that he’ll twist all around his foster in excitement. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
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.
