Oporto

Porto was rescued from the Badajoz Noé Syndrome case. He had been sold by street vendors to a man in Badajoz who suffered from Noé syndrome.

When this man died, all his animals were abandoned; Despite the fact that the conditions where they had been living were not acceptable, people with this disease are unable to see it and really process a great love for their animals.

Oporto arrived at La Candela with four dogs that were given up for adoption once they recovered.

He and Rafael became very good friends very quickly, and spend the day together under Ceniza’s watchful eye.
