My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Porter wakes up ready to go, super excited for breakfast then it's time to play play play! Just when you think this little energizer bunny won't stop, there you'll find him snuggled up close to you. Porter sometimes takes a bit of coaxing to slow down but he's the best snuggler and comes at you 100% with the loves.

Porter in one word.... Everything! This little guy is all the energy, all the play, all the crazy, all the silly, all the love, and all the snuggles. Porter doesn't do anything halfway, he gives it all his all. 

Wanna play ball, tug, or run around the park? Porter is there! Wanna go for an adventure? Porter is there! Wanna snuggle on the couch and watch TV? Porter is there! Though sometimes he will be there throwing toys at you. 🤭 

Porter is crate trained - though it's not his favorite place it is a good place for him to slow down, potty trained, has great recall, knows sit, and sometimes stay. He is very smart and very food and toy motivated to make training a bit easier. Porter is initially a little distrusting of new people, but if you are patient and give him a few minutes he'll love you in no time. He's great with other dogs, especially if they want to play. He's good with cats, though can be annoying to them as he's always trying to play with them. Porter is great with kids, but here's the thing... When the kids get excited and animated Porter follows suit. He wants to play and jump and be crazy pants along with them, he wants to join in the fun! With crazy pants play comes play bites while he grabs for toys (sometimes the snack in kids hands). Porter needs help to keep his energy reigned in, in these moments, that's where bossy adults come in.

Are you ready for a friend, pal, playmate and snuggler, are you ready to keep a pup on the straight and narrow, are you ready for adventure, are you ready for FUN and LOVE? If your answer is yes, Porter is just the guy for you!
