We know he wasn't exactly a product of the curse, unlike Regina's Apple tree, which was shown to be dying at the end of S1, but Pongo wasn't dying. Regina's Apple Tree was not a product of her curse. It was from the courtyard of her palace, and she brought it over. Exactly. No living thing in Storybrooke was a product of the Curse. Plants presumably were left intact from the forest, pets like Pongo were certainly animals (or people) from the afflicted realms and obviously the people were as well. But I've never understood why Regina's tree was dying. It wasn't linked to the Curse, or magical, in any way. She just brought it over. It's never even been confirmed that the Apple was from her tree.
