Meet Pops – The Playful Brainiac Pops is a 2-year-old Beagle Hound mix, weighing around 55 pounds, and he’s ready to charm his way into your heart!

He never turns down a good game of fetch! Pops is also an eager learner who loves engaging with his people, especially when treats are involved. Pops can be a little shy when meeting new people, but with patience and a gentle touch, he warms up quickly. Once he trusts you, he’ll stick by your side like the loyal, loving companion he was meant to be. You may notice something unique about Pops — he has a cherry eye that was surgically corrected but has since relapsed. Our vet has examined him and assured us it’s purely cosmetic, just adding to his quirky charm. Pops is looking for a loving home where he can continue to build confidence, enjoy lots of playtime, and soak up all the affection he deserves. If you’re looking for a fun, devoted, and one-of-a-kind companion — Pops is your guy! Sponsored Adoption Fee!
