DOB: 03/03/2025 Estimated
Age: 1 year
weight: 41-50 lbs

Spayed/Neutered: Yes

Porky came to us as a stray alongside his sibling, who has since been adopted. They arrived young, extremely thin and dirty, and it was clear they had not had the easiest start in life. Despite that, Porky has grown into an incredibly happy, affectionate, and goofy young dog.

Porky absolutely loves people and gets so excited when he sees staff or volunteers coming his way. Porky is playful, silly, and always doing something that makes us laugh, and he is never shy about covering his favorite people in kisses. He does still need some work on his manners when he gets overly excited, but he is young and has so much potential with someone willing to keep teaching him.

Porky is not good with cats and will need a cat-free home. He is a lovable, enthusiastic boy who just wants to play, be included, and soak up as much affection as possible.
