Hi everyone...
My name is REX and I am up for ADOPTION aka looking for my forever home through Cross Your Paws Rescue.
I'm estimated to be 3 y.o. but my foster mom thinks I am younger.
My foster mom did a DNA test and the results are a Heinz 57 mix... I have 22% american pit bull terrier, 17% Treewalker Coonhound,14% Grest Pyrenees, 7% Boxer...
I arrived in PA on 10/19/25 weighing in at 47lbs... but I now weigh a healthy 53 lbs.
- No accidents in my foster home.
- I am super dog friendly and would love a permanent home with a puppy sibling (probably a sibling my size or larger would be best) to continue to show me the ropes. If thats not ideal then I would do great in a house where my family was home a lot with a fenced in yard. I do not require a lot of exercise but I am super happy to walk/hike/explore as well. I have great stamina.
- My mom works night shift but so far I am happy to snuggle close and sleep without a peep during the day and night.
- I do not like being in a crate away from my family I prefer to snuggle on the bed if allowed.
- I love to be as close to my person as I can
- I do not beg for food when you are eating but simply lay down at your feet.
- I do not jump on anyone but my foster mom when she comes home. She is trying to help me learn that's not ideal even though Im so excited to see her. (My foster sister does it, so I think I should.)
- I do not bite.
- I did great visiting with a 11 y.o boy in the house and outside while he was running around me.
I am working on...
- learning on my basic commands - (UPDATE- for some reason I do not like to sit on command, it appears to make me nervous).
- learning no one (especially the men) wants to hurt me. (UPDATE- I love my foster dad and lay/sleep beside him, when mom is not home, but if he goes to pet my head I'm still scared)
- learning car rides can be for fun things (UPDATE- I love going on rides but I require a seat belt to keep me inside when the windows are open)
- learning the feral cats/wildlife are not allowed to be chased (UPDATE- when my mom tells me to leave it - I do not chase the outside cats)
- learning on my recall... but my tree walker coonhound nose makes me want to get on a trail and not use my ears the best. (UPDATE- I am working on off leash in my yard and on hikes and doing well!)
We will continue to update Rex and all the good things he is learning... please SHARE to help him find his home!
