About Poncho
Meet Poncho! This charming 1-year-old, 14lb Chihuahua/Pug mix is known for his delightful squishy face and an exuberant personality that truly lights up any room. Rescued from a high-kill shelter in Texas, he quickly became a staff favorite, winning over the hearts of everyone around him. Poncho's friendly demeanor makes him a joy to be around. He eagerly greets new people with a wagging tail and gathers friends wherever he goes. One of his foster family members noted how funny he is, reporting that he's fully house trained and quietly sleeps in his crate but loves to cuddle at night. On his walks, Poncho's social nature shines as he enthusiastically says hello to everyone and everything, though he may bark a bit at passing dogs out of sheer excitement. He’s food motivated and responds well to positive reinforcement, making him a great candidate for continued training. Poncho would thrive in a home that can provide consistent stimulation, exercise, and affection. We're looking for an adopter ready to commit to training classes that focus on positive reinforcement, as this will help him continue to develop into the fantastic dog he is. Poncho is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and healthy. He's ready to find his forever home, where he will be a loving companion. If you're ready to welcome Poncho into your life, apply today!
