Meet Ponchi

PONCHI NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Ponchi Best Guess for Breed: Miniature pinscher mix Best Guess for Age: 3 years as of July 2026 SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 20 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home Ponchi is Looking For: His forever home! This cutie is looking for his own humans to trot alongside on those sniffy walks and adventures to burn all that awesome young-dog energy. Making new pup pals along and having plenty of opportunity to run and play is on his wish list along with quality kibble and a cushy dog bed. And snuggles! Definitely those too. But above all he wants to know where he belongs, to be under his own roof, to be safe and loved. In exchange, he promises adoring gazes and loyal companionship for all his days. What do you say? Can you see him by your side? What My Foster Says About Me: Ponchi is a love bug. He adores meeting people and is friendly toward other dogs — the tail gets to wagging on his walks when he sees either species. He is very smart — his foster taught him a new trick in no time — for him to offer his paw after sitting to get a treat. He likes to play ball and tug of war but most of all he likes to cuddle next to his humans on the couch. He's also very stylish— he can change his look from adorably cute to regally handsome just by changing his ear position. He does seem to have a chicken allergy, so it's best to feed him food with a different kind of protein. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.
