INTERVIEW WITH POPCORN
WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
My name is Popcorn. Foster Mother enjoys calling me Coco. I just go with it, it makes her happy. Put Popcorn on my application tho otherwise the Adoption Counselors will be like who the heck is Coco???
WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY IS BEST ABOUT YOU?
I get the most comments on the adorableness of my underbite. I also do this happy dance that I perform upawn excitement. It is a cross between a tap dance and the Macarena. It is freakishly adorable to the humans.
WHAT KIND OF DOG ARE YOU?
The kind that’s had enuff of your crap Karen. Just kidding. That’s just my face and is your name even Karen? I look like one of Grumpy Cat’s minions. I am listed as a Chihuahua mix. Howlever, my lanky long legs and the epic waistline scream Italian Grey Hound.
WHAT IS YOUR AGE AND WEIGHT?
I am a little over one year old and weight is a smidgen below 15 pounds. I am a female.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE WORK OUT SONG?
Let It Whip as covered by fictional a cappella group The Treblemakers in the 2012 film Pitch Perfect. Foster Mother says I zoom around the yard like a Whippet or Greyhound so I think it’s appawpriate. I will run circles around you fools.
WHAT IS YOUR GENERAL TEMPERAMENT?
Okay, so say, you are walking past me and you don’t know me and you think, man, she must have an attitude with that face. Remember, what Maya Angelou said, a friend might be waitin’ behind a stranger’s face. Once you know me, I am all SWEETNESS and ENERGY.
YOUR PROFILE SAYS “OLDER CHILDREN ONLY”, WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?
Okay, sure, but first, what is up with your hair? Run out of mousse today Karen. Kidding. Kidding. Speaking of kids, I am a tremblemaker really. Classic Chihuahua. I get nervous with new things and with startling unexpected moves, as would be common occurrence with toddler children. Therefur, the Rescue Ladies is being respawnsible and saying for my contentment, non-loud non-grabby school age children are most appawpriate for me.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT CATS?
Hmmpf, I find the creatures interesting, but useless, so I ignore them. If I can’t play with them, why even bother. I find inanimate toys much more fetching that felines. I love toys!
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
Dogs are my jam. Big, little, smedium, fugly, cute, bring them on. I will play with any dog at any time. Just no lame dogs. I don’t mean lame as in hurt, I mean lame as in boring. Appawrently, I will annoy the heck out of a boring dog trying to convince them to play. My scratches and chews and “c’mon, c’mon, c’mon” vibe might be too much for older dogs. I NEED a fun young dog in my life!!!
ARE YOU POTTY AND CRATE TRAINED?
My Foster Mother works from home, so I rarely need a crate, but yes, yes, I am furmiliar with the convention. I also have the convenience of a doggie door here. I did have few mishaps befur I caught on to the fact that I can indeed let myself out.
WHAT IS THE MAIN THING YOU WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU?
I might come off standoffish and snobbish at first, but I will bond to you like a sticker bur once I know you. I always show my tuff girl side at first due to past experiences, but once you crack this candy shell, I am super gooey on the inside, like one of those little strawberry candies.
