A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Still growing. This breed usually reaches 30–45 lbs.
Hi! I’m Forrest. I’m an incredibly friendly and affectionate goofball. I love being around my humans and giving and getting kisses. I love to play tug and chase with my brother. I’m also happy playing by myself chewing on toys and bones and taking lots of naps. I like to take naps on/by my humans if you want a snuggle buddy! I am mostly house trained! I always pee on my pad and poo on or next to it. If I pee right before bed, I can sleep through the night or I just need one potty break (4 hours in). I go to my crate by myself when I’m tired and ready for bed. I also like to take toys into my crate to play with when I need some down time by myself. I’m learning “sit” and “come” and I listen better when you incentivize me with yummy treats! I’m brave and love to explore my surroundings. I’ll go over every nook and cranny to see if there’s something fun for me to discover and play with. I can’t walk outside yet but like to be carried in your arms for a walk. My foster mom thinks I’ll love going on walks when I’m older because I’m so adventurous. I can’t wait to meet my forever family! Forrest is approximately 0y 2m 11d old and is fully grown at 0 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’m an incredibly friendly and affectionate goofball. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
I go to my crate by myself when I’m tired and ready for bed. 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
If I pee right before bed, I can sleep through the night or I just need one potty break (4 hours in). Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
