Meet Poncho, a bundle of joy who`s always ready to play! His energy is contagious, and he loves nothing more than a game of fetch or tug-of-war. He has a lot of interests like car rides, running, toys, walks, chase, and wrestling. Poncho is the embodiment of affection; he`s a cuddle bug who will melt your heart with his gentle demeanor. He`s a bit needy, always seeking attention and begging for your time. He was given up because his owner didn`t have time for him. But, in return, he offers unconditional love and loyalty. He`s also incredibly curious, his world is full of exciting smells and sounds. Poncho is great with children, his friendly nature making him the perfect playmate. He gets along well with other dogs too, always ready to make a new friend. He wants to play with dogs he meets during walks and at the dog park. He thrives on companionship and never wants to be alone. Poncho weighs 11 pounds and is a bit jumpy and excitable, but that`s all part of his charm. He`s a dog who loves life and wants to share that love with a forever family. Adopting Poncho means gaining a loyal friend who will bring endless joy and laughter into your life. Poncho isn`t just a pet, he`s a family member waiting to happen. (tw 12/16/2024)
