Meet Posey Posey is a sweet girl who found herself trying to navigate life on the streets of Queens. She was found as a stray, and thankfully, a kind family noticed her and began feeding her so she wouldn’t have to fend for herself. They cared about her and wanted to help, but they simply couldn’t keep her. So Posey came to us, and now we are determined to find her the loving home she deserves. Posey is such a sweet girl. After having to rely on the kindness of strangers, she is ready for something she can finally count on: a family of her own. We hope her days of wondering where she belongs are behind her. Posey deserves a safe place to call home, people who will love her unconditionally, and a family who will make sure she never has to face life on her own again. Please consider opening your heart and home to Posey. This sweet girl has been waiting for her forever family, and we hope her next chapter is the one she has been waiting for. Please remember that adoption bios are only a snapshot of each animal. They are meant to give you a glimpse into their personality and story, but there is so much more to learn. Please reach out to our Adoption Team for additional information about Posey and to learn if she may be the right fit for your home. All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. Interested in fostering or adopting? Need more info on this dog?

🧠 Temperament
Meet Posey Posey is a sweet girl who found herself trying to navigate life on the streets of Queens. Mixed-breed dogs pull traits from several lines, which often means fewer breed-linked health problems and a temperament best judged by meeting the dog.
🎾 Exercise
Depends on the individual. A daily walk plus play is the baseline; ask the foster how the dog behaves after a quiet day.
✂️ Grooming
Varies with coat type. Short coats need little; longer or double coats need regular brushing.
🏙️ In a NYC apartment
Mixes are often excellent city dogs. Building breed restrictions are usually enforced on what a dog looks like, so ask the rescue how the dog is typically identified.
