In the shelter’s words
Popeye was found as a stray and ended up in a high-kill animal shelter. He is estimated to be 5–6 years old and weighs just 7 pounds. He's a little rascal with a big personality and makes a wonderful companion! Popeye is easygoing, personable, and gets along well with other dogs. His damaged left eye was surgically removed on the recommendation of our veterinary ophthalmologist. He has his frisky moments, but most of all, Popeye loves to cuddle and spend time with you. Popeye is listed as "special needs" because leash walking is still completely alien technology to him! He isn't comfortable walking on a leash just yet, so he'll need a home with a secure, private, fenced yard of his own where he can take care of bathroom business in peace, stretch his little legs, and slowly practice the art of the leash. He's still building his confidence, and we hope with patience and encouragement, he'll get there in time. If you are interested in meeting Popeye, please complete the adoption application on our website at www.greatpets.org. Popeye's $300 adoption donation includes his veterinary exam, neuter surgery, dental cleaning, vaccinations, fecal exam, and microchip.
