My story

Portia is an energetic pit mix under 1 year old, and she’s all about fun! This bouncy little lady has loads of energy and loves to run, making her the perfect companion for active families or individuals. Not only is she full of life, but she’s also incredibly dog-friendly! In fact, we use her as a dog tester because she gets along fabulously with other pups. While Portia knows how to sit and takes treats nicely, she’s still learning and would benefit from some training. She prefers being with people over playing with toys, so get ready for plenty of cuddle sessions! With a little patience, she’ll happily settle down beside you, soaking up pets and loving tummy rubs. Portia would thrive in a household that can manage her energy and keep up with her playful spirit. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, social companion who’s ready to bring excitement and affection into your home, Portia is the one for you! Come meet her today and discover the joy she can bring to your life! *Reminder* We are currently facilitating adoptions through appointment only. If you arrive at the shelter without an appointment to meet a dog, we may not be able to assist you. Please call the shelter (516-869-6311) during working hours (Mon. to Fri. 9AM-4PM; Sat. 10AM-4PM) for more information about this dog, the adoption process at the shelter, and to confirm availability. Please go to www.theshelterconnection.org for more information about and directions to the shelter.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Portia, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
