Calgary Humane Society

The Calgary Humane Society exists to create a more humane world – when animals are at their most vulnerable, their dedicated care sees them through. They believe in inclusive animal welfare – every animal, every person, and every situation are welcome through their doors.

For over 100 years, Calgary Humane Society has been at the center of animal welfare in our city and for every day to come, they work harder than ever to create a world where animal lives are treated with respect and compassion which translates into more compassion for others in our community.

You can make a direct, life-changing impact. For every animal at the Calgary Humane Society, a loving home is the ultimate goal, and your support is the bridge that gets them there.

Whether you adopt and provide that home directly or donate to fund their journey, your choice creates a better future. 

FUREVER HOME FRIDAY

XL 103 is proud to partner with the Calgary Humane Society for Furever Home Friday!

Each week highlighting an amazing adoptable animal currently in care and looking for a fur-ever home!

This week, we’d like to introduce you to; Porscha!

Animal ID: 2000380726

Age: 8 years, 3 months old
Weight: 64 lbs.

A bit about Porscha:

Porscha is an 8 year old female Pit Bull Terrier. She is a loyal, loving, and all around amazing dog who is seeking her new best friend! She’s a well mannered pup with excellent leash skills, fully housetrained, and comfortable being crated or left home alone.

To top it off, she’s super smart, conquering even the toughest puzzle feeders and mastering skills from “sit” to “roll over”. Porsha appreciates consistency in life – she’s happiest when her dog bed stays where she left it, and her family lets her approach for snuggles when she’s ready!

Age is just a number to Porscha – this older girl still has the best zoomies (especially when her person comes home) and will never turn down the opportunity to go on a hike! When she’s home, though, she likes to kick back, relax, and soak up all the love.

Porscha is equal parts adventure and snuggles, and knows when the time calls for both.
