My story

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

We love Ponyo…whether he’s a fish, a dog or something in between! Check out this huggable hound! Just like the character from the well-known Studio Ghibli film, our Ponyo has undergone a major transformation. He was once a tiny puppy rescued with his mom and eight siblings, but he is now pushing 50 pounds at seven months old. Sadly, he has yet to catch the eye of a potential adopter, though he has stolen the hearts of everyone at SNIPSA. We just need a large breed lover to take a chance on him!

If you are a fan of naps, walks, and Netflix binges, you will surely find a friend in Ponyo. Despite his size, this guy is about as chillaxed as you can get. Ponyo has a calm, good-natured approach wherever he goes. He is gentle when interacting with other animals and has found a playmate in our office dog (a Chihuahua named Toddy). Ponyo is also incredibly loyal. Once he’s made a connection with you, he will follow you like a shadow. That said, he isn’t overly clingy and will happily claim a spot by your feet if you aren’t actively giving him attention!

Ponyo is almost fully housebroken, and he has mastered his “sit” and “come” commands. With his love for food and obliging attitude, he will make an excellent training candidate. He is just waiting for the right human to step up and give him a whirl! So, give Ponyo the life he has been waiting for and place an application to meet him. He truly is fin-tastic.
