Porter

Porter is a sweet young puppy searching for his forever family! He is believed to be a Terrier/Chihuahua mix, and was born around September of 2024. He is currently very small, weighing just 8lbs, but could mature into a medium sized dog when he's full grown. Porter came to BarkVille Dog Rescue after he was surrendered with his siblings (also available). Porter had been living outside on a porch in the cold winter conditions. Porter is a shy boy who needs a calm and patient family who will help him build confidence and learn that the world is a safe place. He has an "old soul" personality and is gentle and very cuddly. Although it takes him a minute to warm up, his playful puppy side does come out once he feels comfortable! Porter will require a family who is ready to tackle the responsibilities of owning a puppy - working on potty training, crate training, basic obedience, and walking on a leash. Due to his age, he will require frequent potty breaks, so a family who is home often is necessary. He is cat, dog, and kid friendly, however due to his shy nature he would prefer kids that are older (10yr+). Porter is currently available for a foster to adopt situation until he receives his final round of vaccines and is neutered, all of which will be covered by BarkVille Dog Rescue. If you're interested in adopting this deserving boy, please email us at [email protected] or submit an application at https://www.barkvilledogrescue.org/applications. BarkVille is located in Roswell, GA and our dogs are available for foster/adoption in the Greater Atlanta area. Applicants in surrounding states could potentially adopt a BarkVille dog if their application is approved, they live within 2 hours of the Roswell area, and they are able to pick up their dog from the foster home.
