Meet our sweet cuddlebug Dempsey, a delightful companion who enjoys entertaining herself with toys, especially those with empty water bottles. She’ll win your heart with her perky ears and her habit of crawling onto your lap for hugs, burrowing her nose under your arm. Patiently, she waits by the door when you leave, then settles back into her routine, eagerly greeting you upon your return. She peacefully sleeps in her crate overnight and adapts well to flexible schedules. This rural-to-city sweetheart has no leash aggression, happily explores new terrain, and rides in cars like a champ. She warmly welcomes new people and is friendly even in larger groups. Apply to adopt this 2-year-old, 35-pound gem today!
Charismatic, 3-year-old Macho Nacho is eager for any and all of your affection: head scratches, belly rubs, snuggles, and treats are some of Mr. Nacho’s favorites. He is always excited to meet new people and give them a lick hello. Macho Nacho also loves sitting on his foster parent’s lap, curling up near his foster parent’s head at bedtime, and cuddling under the blankets on cold nights. His snuggly personality would make him the perfect companion for anyone who works from home, and he’s sure to be the star of any Zoom meeting that he stumbles into. Apply today to meet Macho Nacho!

“Dear PoPville,
He has been taking care of my dog for years, and has always been so sweet and kind with him. Mike is the gentlest soul and I literally can’t stand to take my dog to anyone else. He’s such an important part of our dog community and everyone who knows Mike loves him. Levon’s dog groomer, Groomer Mike, is so beloved that there is often a 2-3 month wait to get appointments with him. It turns out he’s had some serious health issues and could use some help. I hope the DC dog community can rally”
