Meet 2311-1503 Pope

POPE - 7 months old, 50 pounds, bouncy, wiggly, puppy puppy puppy!   Without even looking at his listed age, I knew this little blue boy was a puppy. He is all over the place, even in that medium kennel cage! Wiggling and squirming, he just wanted out to run and cause havoc as all of us know puppies tend to do! He definitely needs leashwork, he needs training, he needs time and lots of your attention! He was adopted for about 3 weeks before the adopter realized they just didn't have the time (and possibly the energy!!) to give Pope what he needs. Pope is good with kids, cats and dogs. He is not quite house trained so please please please be prepared to have patience as Pope learns another new routine in another new home. He's just a baby although he is big and might look older. Nope! This boy is super funny and super friendly and will need to learn boundaries. He does enjoy treats, though! Come out and meet this cutie patootie!  VBACAC is located at  341 S Birdneck Road in Virginia Beach  and we are open daily  12-5 pm .
