Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Lansing, Michigan

Meet Rosco! He is an 8-year-old handsome large-sized boy, weighing around 80 pounds, who's ready to find a loving home to call his own. He came to us due to his owner's health, and he's been patiently waiting since 4/9/2026 for his next chapter.


Rosco is a social, friendly, and well-mannered guy who truly enjoys being with his people. He has a steady, affectionate nature and loves companionship, making him a wonderful presence in the home. Despite his size, he's a gentle boy who enjoys spending time close to his humans.


Because of his larger size and enthusiasm, we do require all young children to meet him prior to adoption to ensure a comfortable and positive match for everyone. Rosco can be quite excited when meeting other dogs, and he may do well with a canine companion if introductions are done thoughtfully and at a comfortable pace.


Rosco is a loving, loyal boy who is ready to settle into a home where he can be part of the family. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. If you're interested in meeting Rosco or learning more, please reach out to an adoption counselor by phone at (517) 626-6060 or email at adoptions@adoptlansing.org.

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.
