Jaro is a loving and sweet boy whose wiggles and smile when you see him will make your day. Jaro is fully house-trained, can be left home alone, and is happy to snooze or entertain himself with a toy or bone while you work. He loves attention and when it is time to play he's all in for a game of tug-of-war, fetch or hide and seek. He enjoys his toys and bones but is very respectful to furniture and leaves personal belongings alone. He is an investigative walker and enjoys exploring his surroundings on lease when outside. He is truly the sweetest boy that will thrive as a home's only dog, would love an enclosed space to run outside, and can't wait to find his forever family! Jaro is approximately 1y 3m 16d old and is fully grown at 55.5 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.

Mixed / Unknown breed

This dog's breed isn't known, so here's general guidance for mixes.

🧠 Temperament

Jaro is a loving and sweet boy whose wiggles and smile when you see him will make your day. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.

🎾 Exercise

He loves attention and when it is time to play he's all in for a game of tug-of-war, fetch or hide and seek. 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

Jaro is fully house-trained, can be left home alone, and is happy to snooze or entertain himself with a toy or bone while you work. Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
