Name: Poppy Rose
Alias: Pocket Poppy
Age: A fiery four
Likes: cuddling with my people, agility training, playing soccer, cooking southern comfort food, dancing up a storm in the kitchen (especially while baking cornbread)
Dislikes: bumblebees, whiskey, the color orange, and people who yell and light things on fire
Favorite leisure activity: watching women’s soccer. I just love high-caliber athletes!
Favorite band: the Black-Eyed Peas. They just make me wanna dance. Especially when I’m cooking black-eyed peas for dinner!
About me: My savior was a nice lady who scooped me up on my last day in a shelter in NYC. She just couldn’t resist what a tiny (35lbs) little love-bug I was. She also thought it was moving that I was so sweet and loving even though I have scars from where I was doused in lighter fluid and set on fire. I think the little scars make me look more distinguished!
Anyhow, my past is behind me. I absolutely love people and I show them my love by cuddling with them and treating them like the center of my world. They say I’m also very sporty (like Sporty Spice!) and I would do well in agility. I think they say that because I LOVE to play soccer and am always trying to recruit the other dogs on the farm to form a team. No luck so far, but I’m gonna keep trying! Oh, and I also LOVE to dance. The ladies who take care of me are always yelling for me to “turn that racket down” when I pump up the jams to dance around.
If you love fun, you’ll love me! Ask about me today!
