Meet Romeo! 💕 Romeo is a sweet, affectionate, and smart 11-month-old boy who absolutely loves being around people. He warmed up to us so quickly that he fell asleep while being petted within just 30 minutes of arriving at his foster home. He’s also a little foodie who gets excited about anything involving food! At home, he loves following us around and checking out whatever we’re doing. When we’re busy, he can also settle down in his own bed for a nap. Romeo is still learning his new routine, but he’s already showing us what a wonderful companion he can be. If you’re looking for a loving buddy to share your everyday life with, Romeo might be your guy! Romeo is approximately 0y 11m 10d old and is fully grown at 53 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
💕 Romeo is a sweet, affectionate, and smart 11-month-old boy who absolutely loves being around people. 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.

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.
