A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Fully grown at about 60 lbs.
Duke is a perfect gentleman! This sweet boy is potty trained and crate trained, and has been so agreeable with everything thrown at him. He is down to match your energy — he spends most of the day snoozing by your side, but loves a good play session or walk. Whoever adopts Duke is going to be the luckiest family in the world. Duke is approximately 8y 8m 19d old and is fully grown at 60 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
This sweet boy is potty trained and crate trained, and has been so agreeable with everything thrown at him. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
He is down to match your energy — he spends most of the day snoozing by your side, but loves a good play session or walk. 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.

It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
