A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Fully grown at about 11 lbs.
Mawmaw is a sweet and gentle 13-year-old lady from Kentucky who’s ready to find her forever home. Don’t let her age fool you—she still has a playful side and enjoys little bursts of fun before settling in for some well-earned relaxation. She loves going for walks and spending time with her people. One of the sweetest things about Mawmaw is how she’ll simply stand there, wagging her tail, happy to be safe, loved, and part of the Muddy Paws family. Now she’s just waiting for a family to call her own. Mawmaw is approximately 13y 0m 9d old and is fully grown at 11.5 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.
This dog's breed isn't known, so here's general guidance for mixes.
🧠 Temperament
Mawmaw is a sweet and gentle 13-year-old lady from Kentucky who’s ready to find her forever home. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
She loves going for walks and spending time with her people. 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
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.
