Story
I weigh 18 lbs, and I'm looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $650 Meet Pompis! Curly white fur, an adorable face, and a personality that's all his own! Pompis is a fluffy little character with plenty of charm and a few quirks that make him extra special! Pompis can be skittish around new people, but once you've earned his trust, you'll discover an affectionate, playful, and incredibly loyal companion. He enjoys car rides, loves going for walks, and is quite the gentleman on a leash! He also gets along well with other dogs. This curly cutie appreciates having his personal space respected and would do best in a home with older children who understand his boundaries. Pompis also needs a family willing to be patient and gentle when it comes to grooming his beautiful curls. Pompis may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for the right family, he'll be the perfect blend of sweet, silly, and devoted! Looking for a lovable companion with a little extra personality? Pompis is searching for someone who will embrace his quirks, respect his comfort zone, and love him just the way he is. Fill out an adoption application and come meet this fluffy sweetheart. Sometimes the best friendships just take a little time to blossom! All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption. All household members and any dogs from the household need to be present to be able to adopt. A photo ID will be required at the time of adoption. Appointments are recommended. All applications are considered general. Specific animals are NOT put on hold for adoption. When you visit, our adoption counselors will be able to make suggestions based on the type of pet you are looking for and help you find the best fit for your family. Animal House Shelter cannot guarantee the breeds of the adoptable animals. The animals are posted on the website as the breed or breed mix based on their physical characteristics they most resemble. We also cannot guarantee the ages of our adoptable animals or how large puppies will be when fully grown. We look forward to seeing you soon!
