About Popcorn

Meet Popcorn 🍿 This little guy is almost 3 months old and weighs around 7 pounds, with plenty of room to grow! Adventurous and clever, Popcorn is a quirky double merle Australian Shepherd with a playful spirit. He and his brother Coke came from a North Texas shelter, and now Popcorn is eager to bring some lovable puppy chaos to a forever home. His daily routine is simple: wake up, explore the house for mischief, find toys, wrestle his brother, and take a nap. Popcorn is completely deaf and has limited vision, but that doesn't stop him from enjoying life.

As a double merle, he needs special care — an experienced adopter familiar with the needs of a deaf dog would be ideal. Consistent routines and a secure environment will help him thrive. Although he sees the world differently, he loves destroying toys, having adventures, and sneaking in lots of puppy naps.
