Meet Popo!
Popo's story could have ended very differently.
This sweet girl was found as a stray and brought to the NYC ACC in heartbreaking condition. She was desperately sick, fighting the deadly Parvovirus and in urgent need of medical treatment and specialized care. Knowing she needed a chance, we welcomed Popo into our rescue and gave her the support she needed to survive.
And survive she did.
Today, Popo is proving every day that she is a true fighter, and despite everything she has been through, she has held onto her joyful spirit. She is playful, affectionate, and every bit the happy puppy she was always meant to be.
Popo has already overcome incredible odds. Now all she needs is a family to help her write the next chapter of her story: a chapter filled with love, adventures, and the security of a forever home.
This resilient little survivor has fought hard for her second chance. Could you be the one to give it to her?

Mixed-breed dogs pull traits from several lines, which often means fewer breed-linked health problems and a temperament best judged by meeting the dog. What the foster or shelter observed day to day is far more predictive than any breed guess.
Depends on the individual. A daily walk plus play is the baseline; ask the foster how the dog behaves after a quiet day.
Mixes are often excellent city dogs. Building breed restrictions are usually enforced on what a dog looks like, so ask the rescue how the dog is typically identified.
