Starving dog found in trash enclosure faced unimaginable horror and needs help to heal

The San Bernardino Animal Shelter in California has named this gentle soul Porter. The three-year-old dog’s story is absolutely heartbreaking.

Porter was found on January 8, 2024 after having been abandoned in a trash enclosure. He weighed only 30 pounds; much less than at least double that weight to be described as healthy. When he was found, his companion had already died, and in a desperate attempt to stay alive, since there had been no food or water to eat and drink, Porter began eating the remains of his canine companion. It is not known how long he had been locked up.
