Special adoption considerations: Puppies under 6 months of age need to have multiple potty breaks/exercise throughout the day. Potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be willing to make arrangements to meet the needs of their puppy.
Porky is Looking For: His forever home! He's at the tail end of puppyhood and has got all that awesome young-dog energy. He's eager for romps and playtime and all the adventures his new humans can dream up. Quality kibble and a cushy dog bed - yes, those too! But you know what he wants most of all? To know where he belongs, to be safe and loved. Porky has so much to give to his humans - adoring gazes, love, and loyal companionship for all his days. What do you say? Can you see him trotting down there by your side? (He says a name change would be just peachy too!)
What My Foster Says About Me: Porky is pure happiness wrapped up in a puppy. From the moment he stepped off the transport van, he was all tail wags and joy, thrilled to meet every single dog and person, as if he'd been waiting his whole life to make new friends.
His first night in foster care went great! He met our large resident dog and immediately showed off his excellent manners with happy wiggles, playful bows, and sweet little requests to play-then promptly decided she was his new best friend. He happily followed her around everywhere, bouncing along behind her and occasionally popping up to jump on her like the most adorable little brother, clearly convinced she was put here just for him to play with. He also met our cat (the unquestioned boss of the house) and handled it like a pro, curious and interested, but gentle, respectful, and polite.
With people, Porky is an absolute cuddle bug. He loves being close, soaking up attention, and receiving endless scratches. He's doing surprisingly well on leash considering it's brand new to him, though he will occasionally request to be picked up-because he knows he's cute, and yes, it usually works.He also traveled in the car like a pro!
Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
