Description:
A STRONG & FRIENDLY BOY: Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 63 lbs. Hello, I’m Porter! Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I am super grateful that they are helping me on the journey to find my new family. I’m soaking up all the love and good care from the shelter volunteers while I wait, and now I am ready to meet my new family – hopefully soon! I’m currently in the prison/foster training program offsite and learning a lot! Please inquire at 770-272-6888 to find out when I’m available to meet. • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I do not like other dogs, so I want to be your only dog! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no young kids that I may bump over. Also, kids should not walk me due to my dislike of other dogs and my strength. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: The volunteers call me a ‘full-on happy dog’! I’m a fun, playful guy who is quite energetic – full of excitement and joy! I’m a typical lab who thrives on direction from a strong leader to help me stay focused and maintain good behavior. I am easily corrected and love my people. I do calm down for my bath – only getting wiggly for my ear cleaning. If you are looking for a happy and enthusiastic friend, I am your guy! / My energy level is 7-8, so I’d like regular exercise and play sessions. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I’m a proud graduate of the Mostly Mutts University training program so I’ve learned the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘down’, ‘come’, ‘drop it’, ‘leave it’ and ‘place’ commands. I also use proper door etiquette and have good leash manners as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. / My crate manners are good in the prison/foster training program. / My potty habits are good on the prison/foster training program schedule. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love people and enthusiastically seek attention from them. Playing and being active makes me a happy guy. Treats are yummy, and I have sat nicely for them. I like to chew on bones, so let’s get some of those please. I do everything with gusto, including eating my meals, so I use a slow feeding bowl at Mostly Mutts and should use one in my new home. / I don’t love having my ears cleaned and I would not be happy in a home where I didn’t get enough exercise and training. Otherwise, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love and attention. • MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I am looking for a loving home with a great family for life! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
