Meet Poppa – The Sweetest Gentleman Pointer You’ll Ever Meet! 🤍 This handsome boy is an affectionate, easygoing English Pointer who’s ready to find his forever home! Poppa is the total package — he’s friendly, gentle, and loves everyone he meets, both two- and four-legged. He’s great with other dogs, loves attention, and has that classic Pointer charm that melts hearts. He already knows how to sit and shake on command (because he’s a polite gentleman, of course) and is eager to please. Whether he’s curled up beside you for snuggles or enjoying a walk in the fresh air, Poppa brings calm, joyful energy to every moment.
