Porkchop’s early days weren’t easy—he nearly missed out on the world before rescue gave him a second shot. Now, Porkchop is settled into his role as a bright, friendly companion. He lights up in the company of people and seems to treat every new face as a potential best friend. Loyalty and affection define him: he’ll curl up on the couch or stick close to his people for every moment he can get. With other dogs, Porkchop is playful and would really love a canine buddy who can keep up with his goofy energy. A backyard suits him well; he’s the type who likes to run, chase, and just savor what it means to be a dog. Despite his rough start, Porkchop remains unshakably optimistic and ready for new adventures. This is a young, wire-coated, neutered pit bull terrier who’s house trained and vaccinated, and he’s in Franklin, TN awaiting a family to call his own. If you’re looking for a dog who wants nothing more than to be included, he’ll make sure you never feel alone on the sofa—or in the yard. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
