My story

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

Hey there! My name is Popo but my foster family calls me Dobby. I’m the cutest, bestest, boi evah! I’m mostly a handsome tawny guy but I have this wickedly adorable white stripe that starts at my nose, runs all the way down my chest, and then skips down to my toes. You gotta’ see it! Craziest thing. And my ears somehow have minds of their own, one up, one down as if they belong to two different dogs. But nope! They’re both mine and they’re cute as heck.

My greatness doesn’t stop at how cute I am. Oh no. I’m a mellow guy who loves to lounge around and take it easy. I enjoy a casual evening stroll and hanging with the fam. Big peeps are really cool and the medium size peeps too, but I’m kinda’ scared of the little peeps, so it’s probably best if there are none of those in my forever home. I know not to go potty in the house so you don’t have to worry about that. (I have had a couple accidents but that’s when my foster fam forgot to let me out before bedtime, so that’s on them.) I also like hanging in my crate while all the peeps are gone and I even like eating in there. I like sleeping with the medium size peep or my foster doggy sibling. See? Good boy.

I get along great with other doggos and also those fluffy kitty cat things. My foster kitty siblings like to boss me around but I don’t mind. I mostly just ignore them. I’m a good watch dog too. I’ll let you know when someone is at the door but once I realize they’re friendly I’m chill. I can be a bit shy when I first meet peeps so when you come to meet me don’t think I don’t like you. It just takes me awhile to warm up to new people and figure out that I can trust them. I went to stay with another foster family while mine went away for a little bit and they said I was the goodest boi! It’s true! You’ll see when you adopt me! I’m ready to meet you today!
