Hi! I’m Scrappy! I’m a sweet lover boy with a gentle demeanor. I love snuggling with humans and other dogs. I’ve gotten along so well with my foster sister, who is smaller than me. We play, take naps, and take walks together! When on walks, I am very curious about other dogs and humans. I just want all the love from everyone. I may jump on you, but it’s a gentle jump, and I’m trying to control my excitement and do it less. I really just want to give humans a hug. I love playing with toys… so far, my foster sister's stuffed animals have been my favorite to chew, throw up in the air, and sleep with. I’m a great city dog; I can go on long walks in the park but also can snooze on the couch while you watch football. As long as I’m around you, I’m happy. I am learning personal space, but if you sit near me, I will probably hug you and throw myself in your lap for belly rubs and snuggles. Scrappy is approximately 3y 0m 8d old and is fully grown at 25 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

I’m a sweet lover boy with a gentle demeanor. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.

🎾 Exercise

When on walks, I am very curious about other dogs and humans. 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 a great city dog; I can go on long walks in the park but also can snooze on the couch while you watch football. Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
