A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Fully grown at about 20 lbs.
Hi everyone, my name is Daisy! I'd describe myself as a soft, gentle and quiet lady. I love nothing more than to cuddle up with my foster parents on the couch and receive lots of pets and kisses. I never make a sound, I happily put myself to bed in my crate and am very well trained to sit when asked. I respect my foster parent's space while they eat and love going for walks outside. I am friendly to new people and will happily let children pat me, but if there are too many people around or a busy street, I get a little nervous and hide behind my foster parents. I don't bark when I'm left home alone. To be honest, I'm not even sure I know how to bark or what my voice sounds like. But one thing I do know, I am my happiest while stealing body heat and receiving lots of pets. Daisy is approximately 7y 5m 5d old and is fully grown at 20 pounds. They are microchipped and up to date on all age-appropriate medical care. Their breed is unknown as we have not had a DNA test done. Although our dogs are listed as unknown breed, buildings with specific dog restrictions typically enforce their rules based on what breeds a dog appears to resemble. It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. This dog is available for adoption through Muddy Paws Rescue. If you're interested in adopting, the first thing you should do is begin the registration process at www.muddypawsrescue.org. If you are already a registered adopter with Muddy Paws Rescue, please email us at adoptionmeetings@muddypawsrescue.org.
This dog's breed isn't known, so here's general guidance for mixes.
🧠 Temperament
I am friendly to new people and will happily let children pat me, but if there are too many people around or a busy street, I get a little nervous…. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
I respect my foster parent's space while they eat and love going for walks outside. 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
I don't bark when I'm left home alone. Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
