About Porkchop

Porkchop is a four-year-old male French Bulldog who brings a lot of personality to the table. He’s got a quirky, playful edge and entertains himself happily with a bone or, when it’s time to wind down, suckles a stuffed animal to sleep. Porkchop attaches deeply to his people and often becomes your little shadow, but don’t expect him to be a lap dog—cuddling isn’t his main thing. He’s clever and keen to please, already crate-trained and housebroken. Routine keeps him grounded, and he looks forward to his daily walks. He gets along just fine with other dogs but is people-focused, so a home with or without dogs works. Porkchop isn’t a match for homes with cats or for families with younger children, since the commotion can be overwhelming for him; any children should be 12 or older. His skin condition, Pemphigus, requires daily medication and medicated baths, so you’ll need to commit to his care and ongoing dermatology regimen. Porkchop is seeking a home dedicated to training, routine, and medical management to keep him thriving. Currently, Pitties.Love.Peace is looking for a foster-to-adopt situation for Porkchop while specialists monitor his skin. Any foster must be within commuting distance to Elizabethtown, PA, and adoption gets finalized once his condition stabilizes. Your new best friend is just one click away.
