Story
Porter is a charmingly pocket-sized gentleman, approximately 10 Ibs. and 7-8 years old, and he is ready & waiting for a home of his own! He arrived at NCCR on 9/12/26, transferred after being dumped at an overcrowded shelter by a breeder who was done with him. Little Porter is believed to be a Cavapoo or miniature poodle, full-grown, dog-friendly, people-friendly, cat-friendly, and he is looking for a soft place to land where he can adjust to his new life as part of a loving forever family. If you have a low-key, quiet home and can promise him the kindness and affectionate he deserves, Porter can't wait to meet you!Porter is one of three Cavapoos (or mini poodles?) who arrived September 12th. (Porter-apricot male, Jade-grey female (adopted), Pixie-brown female) Their temporary foster mom reported, “They are very friendly dogs, good with cats and other dogs.”They can be adopted separately or better yet, together! They are microchipped, vaccinated and altered.*Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure he is a great fit.If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email, as we receive many phone calls.Not sure if you are ready to adopt? Please consider applying to foster Porter, which will lead to a happily ever after adoption, either with you, or the family you help get him ready for! Fostering is an incredibly rewarding experience. Learn more and apply on our website, under the “Get Involved” tab.We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will not be able to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
