Hi, I'm Freckles! 🐾 I'm a 3-month-old puppy with a tiny body and a big personality! I may be little, but I'm super curious and don't want to miss a thing. If you're folding laundry, making dinner, or just hanging out, you'll probably find me right by your side making sure I know what's going on. One of my favorite things in the world is snuggling. Give me a cozy blanket and someone to cuddle with, and I'm one happy pup! I'm also working really hard on my potty training. I use my pee pad like a champ, especially when I get lots of praise—it makes my tail wag every time! I love playing with my foster buddy, Flash, but I also love spending time with my people. Whether we're playing, cuddling, or just relaxing together, I'm happiest when I'm with someone I love. I'm looking for a forever family who will give me lots of love, belly rubs, and snuggles. I promise to fill your home with puppy kisses, happy tail wags, and plenty of smiles. I can't wait to meet you! Freckles 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 a 3-month-old puppy with a tiny body and a big personality!. 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
I'm also working really hard on my potty training. Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
