Pops
Pops, a dashing black-and-tan senior dachshund, became part of the DARE family in 2025. Estimated to be a spry 18-year-old, Pops faces some health challenges, including heartworms and bad teeth, but his sweet spirit shines through it all. This gentle soul gets along beautifully with everyone—dogs, cats, children, men, and women alike. Pops loves nothing more than snuggling in a warm lap or curling up in the biggest dog bed he can find, where he practically disappears. Despite his special needs and the ongoing care he requires, Pops is thriving in his foster home, soaking up love and comfort every single day. This sweetheart is living proof that age is just a number when you’re surrounded by care and affection.
