Description

Playful boy looking for his forever family! POPCORN NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Popcorn Best Guess for Breed: Chihuahua mix Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of May 2025 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 25lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen them with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home Special adoption considerations: Popcorn is a truly Lucky Dog. He tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Popcorn is Looking For: His forever home! This sweetie is eagerly looking forward to having his own humans for sniffy walks and all the adventures they can dream up. And dog school so he can show how super smart he is. And then pets and cuddles and belly scritches at the end of a fun day together. And he'll want quality kibble and a cushy dog bed. Most of all, though, he wants to know he's safe and loved. In exchange he promises all the adoring gazes and happy tail wags he's storing up, and loyal companionship for all his days. What do you say? Is Popcorn the one you see by your side? What My Foster Says About Me: This snuggly sweetheart is full of love and enthusiasm! He adores nightly cuddles, gets excited for daily walks, and is happiest by your side. A bit shy at first, but once he trusts you, he’s all in. He’s learning the ropes of playtime, crate comfort, and house manners—making great progress every day. Great on leash, sleeps soundly, and just wants a person who’ll guide him as he blossoms into the confident, playful pup he’s meant to be. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.
