Technically, he\u2019s Heather\u2019s dog and we\u2019re not sure what breed he is but he\u2019s very well trained, exceptionally so without being a show dog. He\u2019s a very good weight for his age and activity level and zero health issues. We couldn\u2019t be luckier with a dog. I admit that he\u2019s slightly spoiled going to daycare 3 days a week and he dog park 3 days a week but on our road trip to Florid and back, he did so well, needing just a meal a day and water every 6 hours (despite us trying to give him more). We drove straight from Florida to NH 22 hours on the road and he didn\u2019t complain once. Happy Birthday, Porter.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Porter the Catahoula, Dog Park 1-14-2018&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/25817292868\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block;
