Looking for my Horgon. Trek XI reference For those wondering the fate of Admiral Archer's "prized beagle" in the novelization of the movie, he rematerializes onto one of the Enterprise's transporter pads just as the ship is leaving with Kirk in command for the first time. It says noone knows where he came from but of couse Scotty does and likely very quietly sends him back to Admiral Archer.

Fruitcake , May 14, I still want a puggle. Praetor , May 15, I thought it was a legal requirement that any new Beagle puppies had to be called Porthos. Avoid the cheese, for the sake of any carpeting you have, avoid the cheese. I was eating a cheeseburger the other night and K. Worf told Sito that the ops duties were a different challenge than the tactical duties. In , while attempting to persuade Captain Kathryn Janeway to mate with him, Q made an Irish Setter puppy appear in her quarters, as a gift.
The female Q later referred to Janeway as "the dog. When he accidentally traveled back in time with Quark , Rom and Nog to , Constable Odo disguised himself by turning into a German Shepherd dog, popular among Earth militaries at the time. The Organians ' imitation of a simple humanoid culture included dogs, one of which was heard barking while Captain Kirk and his first officer , Spock , prepared to blow up a Klingon munitions dump.
In , a Coalescent organism absorbed the dog Maura and took its form. The Banea domesticated a creature very much like dogs, whether or not they were native to their homeworld.
When Porthos was sickened due to a pathogen on the Kreetassan homeworld of Kreetassa , Captain Archer had a dream about Porthos' burial. It was at a "dog cemetery " with several tombstones, including ones for Duffy and Goldie.
Sign In Don't have an account? The noise of this dog barking wasn't scripted. Retrieved from " http: While Archer paced back and forth across the floor, Porthos followed on the captain's bed. He was desperately attempting to acquire a piece of cheese that the captain was holding. Archer paused the log entry to reproachfully remind Porthos that he had previously suffered problems digesting cheddar cheese. However, the captain ultimately gave into the dog's pleas. Archer rubbed Porthos behind his ears and resumed the log. Before the captain left his quarters with Ensign Hoshi Sato , Porthos quietly barked.
Archer looked round to see the dog sitting upright, wagging his tail and gazing expectantly at the captain. When Porthos whimpered, Archer reluctantly tossed him another piece of cheddar, informing the dog that it was "the last time". Porthos jumped to catch the cheese in midair and gratefully chewed the snack.
Enterprise soon visited a planet that later became known as Archer IV. He was the first to exit the shuttlepod, bounding out of the craft and racing across the grassy surface of the planet, essentially wasting no time in going — as Commander Tucker put it — "where no dog has gone before". When Archer whistled for the dog to return, Porthos obediently rushed back to the captain and his officers. The dog ran beside the Humans as they leisurely explored the planet. Porthos eventually raced ahead of his companions to the edge of a small boulder overlooking a stream.
He gazed at his surroundings as the Humans took up a position directly behind him and contacted the other members of the team. They soon began to leave the area and Porthos followed them back to the shuttlepod. It was decided there that Archer and Porthos would return to Enterprise while the others would stay on the planet to conduct research and enjoy shore leave. Archer later fed Porthos dog food while talking with Commander Tucker using subspace communication , as the engineer was aboard a damaged Xyrillian starship.
Shortly thereafter, a group of Borothan pilgrims were hosted aboard Enterprise.
Archer entered his quarters after returning from the ship's mess hall to find Porthos barking and whimpering. The captain rubbed the dog behind his ears and assumed Porthos was upset that his breakfast was already two hours late. Archer consequently began to prepare a meal for Porthos, telling the dog that he had also missed his own breakfast.
However, Porthos continued to bark and the captain eventually realized that something else was wrong. Archer told Porthos that he wasn't getting any cheese as the captain gave him a bowl of dog food.
The Beagle moved away from the food to hide behind Archer and growled at something on the other side of the captain. While Porthos kept snarling, Archer noticed a Borothan robe on his desk. He realized that his pet Beagle had been attempting to warn him that Silik was using his Suliban camouflage ability to hide unseen in the room. Archer tried to contact ship's security, but was stopped by Silik.
After they talked, Silik shot the captain with a Suliban disruptor. Porthos barked in distress as Archer fell to the deck and Silik left the room. Once the Suliban had gone, Porthos whined while he scampered over to Archer's fallen body and licked the captain's face. Following Archer's recovery, the captain and Commander Tucker took Porthos for a walk in September of The group left from the captain's quarters and traveled through a corridor to an intercom that Tucker calibrated.
As Porthos stood waiting for the Humans, Archer told him to sit. The dog complied with the instruction and continuously wagged his tail. Porthos followed when Archer and Tucker resumed their journey through the corridor.
The Humans entered the mess hall together but soon left when T'Pol contacted Archer with news of an imminent emergency. In engineering , Archer recalled that he had risked the lives of the entire crew by rushing Enterprise out of spacedock. Tucker reminded him that the life of his dog had also been jeopardized and Archer sarcastically replied " Thanks ". Shortly thereafter, Captain Archer took Porthos to see Dr. While the dog sat on a biobed , Archer and Phlox viewed the animal's stomach using a computer monitor.
Phlox diagnosed Porthos as having mild gastrointestinal distress. As Archer approached the dog, he commented that Porthos hadn't been himself recently. The Beagle moaned softly when the captain began to rub behind his ears. Phlox explained that the noted difference in the dog's behavior was a result of Archer feeding Porthos cheese. The doctor advised Archer to learn how to deny Porthos what he wanted. The captain relayed the news to Porthos, telling the dog that he was no longer allowed dairy products.
Phlox injected Porthos with a hypospray before Archer picked the dog up from the biobed and into his arms. While the captain stroked behind the dog's head, he apologized for bothering Phlox. The doctor replied that analyzing the dog's condition was no bother and remarked that Porthos had been one of his most co-operative patients on that particular day. As Archer lifted Porthos down to the floor, the captain thanked Phlox.
Archer and Porthos headed toward the exit as the captain asked the dog, " See all the trouble you cause? The strong relationship between Archer and Porthos later inspired Phlox to note in a letter to Dr. Jeremy Lucas that Humans surprisingly tended to make intimate bonds with 'lesser' creatures. Phlox was also amused by Archer's habit of anthropomorphizing and even talking to Porthos, although the doctor was fairly certain that the dog could not understand English.
Phlox then recalled how he himself had occasionally talked to his Pyrithian bat and realized that speaking to animals was not so strange as he had initially thought.
When a group of Ferengi marauders rendered the Enterprise crew unconscious and boarded the ship, one of the aliens named Grish attempted to establish communication with Porthos through a universal translator. After failing to lock onto the dog's language, Grish's cohort, Muk , deduced that Porthos was a lower lifeform and called Grish a fool. Although Muk suspected that the animal was probably the captain's next meal, Grish argued that the size of the dog's ears suggested otherwise.
Muk informed his accomplice that he would be able to acquire several bars of gold -pressed latinum for Porthos at the Malurzian Zoo. Muk picked the dog up from off Archer's bed and held him in mid-air while Grish left with another Ferengi marauder named Ulis. Muk subsequently carried Porthos to the launch bay and placed him inside a cargo container. Once the crew regained control of the ship, Archer released Porthos from the cargo container and rubbed the dog's head, playfully asking if he was okay. While a Kantare female named Liana visited the ship, Commander Tucker gave her a tour of the vessel.
In engineering, he told her about T'Pol, Phlox, and Porthos. Liana did not understand what a dog was, as she had never seen one and the word had no equivalent in the Kantare language. Tucker therefore described Porthos as a mammal with four legs and big ears. The engineer also commented that the dog was slightly "cute". When Liana asked what Porthos did, Tucker replied, " Not much — he's the captain's pet ". Liana understood the word "pet" and realized her mistake. She asked Tucker if she could see the dog, as she was unfamiliar with the creature.
In early , Porthos was lying on a cushion in Archer's quarters when he sensed an alien symbiotic lifeform move through a Jefferies tube above the room. He looked up at the ceiling before licking the point of his nose as he quickly moved off the cushion. He then jumped onto the captain's bed and, balancing on his hind legs, began to bark at the ceiling.
In February of the same year, Archer was lying on his bed and playfully massaging Porthos' head when T'Pol solemnly entered the captain's quarters. Archer held Porthos in his hands and started to gently rub the dog as he asked T'Pol if there was something wrong. When she replied that she had spoken to V'Lar , a visiting Vulcan ambassador , Archer lifted Porthos on to his bed and instructed the dog, " Go on ".
Porthos then walked to the edge of the bed and jumped down off it. On February 12th, Archer recorded a log entry concerning the crew's forthcoming shore leave on Risa. Porthos lay on the cushion next to the captain's bed and watched as Archer made the entry.
Porthos was Captain Jonathan Archer's pet Beagle. Porthos and his brothers were born to a female dog owned by the mother of one of Archer's ex-girlfriends. When Archer moved aboard Enterprise in April of , he took Porthos with him. Buy Porthos the Pup: Read Kindle Store Reviews - www.farmersmarketmusic.com
When T'Pol contacted the captain from the bridge, he paused the log to answer. She notified him that Enterprise was receiving an incoming distress call and asked whether the bridge crew should alter their course to investigate the emergency. Archer was at first hesitant but eventually replied positively.
After closing the communication channel, Archer told Porthos that his walk on the beach would probably have to wait.
Aware that his owner was talking about the walk, Porthos barked softly as he jumped up to a sitting position. After Archer left the room, however, Porthos seemed disappointed and depressed. He tucked one leg under him and lay back down. Six days later, Enterprise finally reached Risa.
