About Poppy

Pondi is a 4-year-old female Terrier mix with a scruffy brown/brindle coat. Weighing in at 32 pounds, she is a medium-sized dog who has a gentle and loving nature. Though she is painfully shy at first, once she trusts you, she forms quick bonds and thrives on kindness and attention. Pondi is great with children and other dogs, making her an excellent companion in a family setting. She still needs to be spayed before her adoption is finalized. Pondi, alongside her litter of seven puppies, was surrendered by her owners due to their inability to care for them. It's important to note that you must meet her in person at the Prattville/Autauga Humane Society to begin the adoption process. Ready to meet Pondi? Apply today!
