Colby - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Copiague, New York

Meet Colby! Small Pup, BIG Personality!

This adorable little girl is officially accepting applications for her future forever family!

Colby was born on September 18th, and her mama is an adorable 8-pound Yorkie mix!

While we can't predict exactly how big Colby will get, she's already weighing approximately 2 pounds, so we expect her to be bigger than her mama. Our best guess is that she'll stay under 25 pounds fully grown, but that's just an estimate!

The mystery is about to be solved! Colby's DNA test is pending, and we can't wait to find out what breeds make up this little cutie! Results coming soon!

A few things to know about Colby:

Born September 18, 2026

Female small mixed breed

Estimated adult weight under 25 pounds (not guaranteed)

Expected to be ready for her forever home in mid-November

Applications are being accepted now for consideration!

Colby still has some growing to do before she's ready for her forever family, but that doesn't mean you can't get a head start on falling in love!

Apply today for consideration through Happily Ever After Rescue (H.E.A.R.)!

And while we wait for those DNA results... what breeds do YOU think are hiding in Colby's family tree?

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
