My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Poncho! He’s a 5-6 year old little guy (8lbs) but could lose some weight He’s a super cute, super silly boy who will entertain you with his BIG personality. He is one of our favorite boys around- he is currently in foster care with other dogs & does well, although I think he’d like to be the king of his house . He does have a habit of running over to everyone’s left overs and gulping it down, after he eats his bowl of food. He’s a character for sure! Poncho’s ideal home would be with 1-2 people & not lots of strangers coming over. He can be weary of new people- but is amazing with his people. Poncho’s a great dog who’s looking for his forever home! I mean, come on- look at those expressive ears of his!

If you would like to meet Poncho, please email adopt@rocketdogrescue.org or TEXT Pali at 415-756-8188

Please put PONCHO AKA FAT CHIHUAHUA IN THE SUBJECT LINE WHEN EMAILING OR TEXTING.
