Porter's Story
Oh our Porter is a hoot. This guy has been through a lot. Mostly, he lived in fear...total fear, constantly on the run for many months. Prior to rescue, for many months, Porter was being tracked by our friends at HARTT. Porter had covered approximately 30 miles on all four paws. Porter was too terrified to trust anyone, and he would just run to nowhere, trying to escape his fear. Porter finally settled in Anthem, AZ. He was hanging around a homeowners carport and she was supplying him with a steady flow of food and water. Time was of the essence to save Porter as we worried he would hit the road again... and soon Porter was safe! It was a traumatic rescue as a gigantic drop net was deployed above him... but he was safe! So today, Porter is a cautious when meeting new people. But he is sweet, he is funny and he likes to have fun! He has gained a lot of confidence. Most importantly, he has found joy in life. . He is currently in a foster home with multiple dogs. He loves to play, play, play and then hit the couch and just get his chest petted. Porter has a favorite volunteer who comes weekly and reads to him with a pup cup in tow! The next step in Porters journey is a family with a quiet, steady routine. Patience, kindness and understanding is a must. Porter is about 3.5 years old, and weighs 50lbs. He is a sweet, sweet fella and he is a hoot. We joke that he has become such a couch potato because he is still recovering from all those miles he covered while running in fear. Those days are in the past.
