My story…

I was born on a chilly morning in the Pacific Northwest into a human family that didn’t want me. Along with my brothers and sisters, I was given to a kind woman who ran a small animal shelter.  I was scared and thought my life was over before it had even begun.

And yet, it seems I was marked by destiny. Even as a newborn puppy I felt there was something different about me, something unusual, exceptional.

You see, I have a sixth sense. It’s as if I can look inside the soul of any person or dog. Troubled souls, like those of my first human family, are dark—a gunmetal grey. But a soul filled with love shines light. To me, dogs give off light like the noonday sun, but for a while I wasn’t sure humans could emit more than a few weary sparks.

Then one day a couple came into the shelter. They shined. With my eyes I pleaded, “Pick me.”

That’s how my luck changed. My new human parents were almost like dogs! Their unselfishness and enthusiasm changed my perception of people.

I realized then that my gift had purpose – to discover the glow and passion of others and share their stories with the world.

I created In the PorterHaus so that I can relate my journey of discovery to you.

How can you join in?
