Story
Hi there— nice to meet you! My name is Popcorn, and just like my name suggests, I’m full of bounce, energy, and a whole lot of heart. I’m about 50 pounds of what’s believed to be pure Border Collie (though no one’s sent in the DNA test yet!), and I’ve got the smarts, agility, and charm to prove it. I pick up commands incredibly fast — I already know sit, stay, paw, come, and more, and I’m always eager to learn new things. I also respond to the name ‘Hiro’, just in case you hear someone call that and I come running!I’m an athletic guy who absolutely needs space to move. I can jump really high, love to do zoomies, and thrive in a home with a fenced yard where I can stretch my legs and let my herding instincts kick in a little. Apartment life just isn’t for me. I love going on long walks, hiking, and car rides — basically, if it involves being active and outside with my people, I’m all in. I’m also very dog-social and enjoy playing with other pups. In large groups of dogs, I sometimes try to “herd” the fun (what can I say, I’m a working dog at heart), but I get along well with just about everyone— including cats!That said, I’m a bit of a sensitive soul. Small, unpredictable kids make me anxious, so I’d feel more comfortable in a home with older children or adults who understand I do best with calm energy and consistency. I’m crate trained and do well when I have structure. I don’t guard my food, and I’m very polite at mealtimes — I’ll even wait my turn without fuss. However, I do have a bit of a mischievous side: if you leave food on the counter or the trash unattended, I might just help myself. I’m working on it, promise!Despite my active nature, I’ve got a soft, cuddly side, too. I love snuggling up at the end of the day and being close to my people. I may be energetic, but I’m also affectionate and loyal — once I bond with you, I’ll be your shadow. With the right home, a bit of guidance, and lots of love, I know I’ll make an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a smart, playful, affectionate dog to share your adventures (and your couch), I might just be the perfect match.
