A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
About 10 lbs now and still growing — this breed usually reaches 30–45 lbs.
Little Dolly is just as charming and sweet as her namesake. Dolly has not found her singing voice & can initially be shy but once she's comfortable, will shadow you like it's her 9 to 5. She already knows how to sit & is progressing with potty training (minus the occasional excited pee when picked up or startled). She's found her harmony at home with sister Jolene and resident pup Ruby - happy to share toys, treats, and lots of cuddles. Dolly will always love you & is looking for her forever companion to sing Islands in the Stream with! Dolly is approximately 0y 4m 4d old and may be 26 to 32 pounds when fully grown. 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
Little Dolly is just as charming and sweet as her namesake. 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
She already knows how to sit & is progressing with potty training (minus the occasional excited pee when picked up or startled). Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
