Porter Brewery Mini Aussie Cutie - Australian Shepherd and Corgi Dog for Adoption in Friendswood, Texas

Porter Brewery has the sweetest little face, the silliest puppy energy, and an innocent personality that makes it nearly impossible not to fall in love with him. He may be a little shy when you first meet him, but give him time to take everything in, and you'll soon see the playful, adorable little guy hiding underneath those initial nerves.

Porter is approximately 6 months old and weighs around 13 pounds. He is believed to be a Mini Australian Shepherd mix, but as always with animal rescue, breed and age are our best guesses and we can never guarantee either. Although Porter still looks very much like a puppy, we don't expect him to get much bigger, if at all.

Porter is dog friendly and currently being fostered in a multi-dog household. He enjoys playing chase and has a fun but generally gentle play style. If another dog gets a little too pushy or rambunctious, Porter will let them know he needs some space, but his corrections are always fair. He has also spent time around cats and currently lives with one in his foster home. So far, he has done well!

This sweet boy is playful, energetic, silly, and still has that wonderfully innocent puppy way about him. He loves treats, enjoys playing with toys, and will happily keep himself busy when given something fun to do. He can be slower to warm up to new people, but he simply needs a little time to feel comfortable. Once he does, his sweet personality begins to shine.

Porter is crate trained and comfortable resting in his crate, although he may bark from time to time. His potty training is also going well, and he seems to understand that potty time happens outside.

Porter would be happiest in a home with a backyard rather than an apartment. He has plenty of playful Aussie energy packed into his little body, so he would love someone who appreciates a smart, active dog and doesn't mind keeping his brain busy with toys, games, walks, and new things to learn. Nothing too complicated, just someone ready to have a little fun with him.

With a patient family, room to play, and plenty of treats nearby, Porter is going to grow into the sweetest little companion. He's adorable, a little goofy, and ready to bring a whole lot of personality into his future home.

We are willing to test Porter Brewery with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us knows

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.

At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog's growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!

We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap -- ranging from $100-$1,000+ per dog.

Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
