Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Adoption Application:
bit.ly/C2CND_App
Quick Facts
Breed: German Shepherd mix
Age: 3 years old
Size: Currently 50#, but slightly underweight - could stand to gain 5-10#.
House-Trained & Crate trained
Poco, a mixed breed boy who landed himself in the pound when he was seized from his ”home”. Now his home was the local pound and he was on death row which means he could be killed at any moment likely due to lack of space. (Let me remind you this is NOT the fault of the shelter workers, or volunteers - this is the fault of the trash that treated him like he was nothing more than worthless property). Poco was severely neglected and nearly starved to death. He weighed under 30 pounds when he first entered the system, he was skin and bones. Poco is visually impaired but we don’t know to what extent he can see and we don’t know what caused the issues with his eyes. We brought him into our rescue reassuring him that he is safe now and we will find him the most wonderful family who will treat him like a king. We could tell he was leary and almost a little shut down but we are here to help him overcome any obstacles.
-Poco is visually impaired. Do not know extent.
- He is learning the outdoors in a fenced yard. He requires a fenced in yard in his forever home due to his visual impairments.
-He is currently learning steps and loves to be outside in the sun with his person.
-We are currently in the process of introducing to different dogs and is doing great so far!
-He does walk on a leash, the use of a halter with a grab handle is useful. Due to his vision impairment the handle halter helps to guide him safely.
-He just needs sufficient time to settle into new surroundings.
-He has not been tested with Cats.
- Due to his previous life, he would do best eating separately as he may steal other dogs food.
-He is a gentle soul that simply needs time to bloom. But he is worth every effort!
Before emailing- please read:
- Yes, this dog is available for adoption
- The adoption fee for Poco is $265
- Apply at c2cnd.org
- The adoption fee covers appropriate shots, microchipping, heartworm testing, deworming, spay/neuter, and any other medical expenses while in our care.

- Local adopters only. Due to us finalizing adoptions at adopter's home, we limit our adoptions to local families in the greater Charlotte area.
- If you have any additional questions, email us at dogs@c2cnd.org and we will respond as soon as possible!
