For a stray dog living in South Africa, life was hard. The neighborhood kids were cruel to the poor pup and bullied him because he was old.

The helpless dog, later named Porkie, spent so many years living on the streets, things probably felt hopeless by the time help finally arrived.

Sidewalk Specials found out about the dog being bullied by the kids and immediately went to help.

Porkie was taken in by rescuers and got settled into his new home. He was so happy to be loved! It wasn’t long before a family came to adopt him and now he’s living his best life.

He has his very own dog bed and the freedom to do zoomies and get pets in peace, without worrying about being hurt by kids or other dogs.
