A NYC estimate for a dog this size and coat. Excludes the adoption fee and anything unexpected.
Fully grown at about 12 lbs.
Scooby is a very sweet, happy boy with a curious personality and a heart full of love. If you're relaxing on the couch, you can count on him to be right there beside you, ready to snuggle. He also loves adventures, especially long walks in the park where he can explore and take in all the sights and smells. Scooby is a big fan of other dogs and is always excited to make new furry friends whenever he gets the chance. Scooby is approximately 7y 1m 6d old and is fully grown at 12 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
Scooby is a very sweet, happy boy with a curious personality and a heart full of love. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
He also loves adventures, especially long walks in the park where he can explore and take in all the sights and smells. 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.
