    Don't water just near the base of the tree. Water the entire absorbing root zone, which extends at least as far as the foliage.

    When you say a porcupine visited the tree, did it do some damage to the bark and underlying growing layer? If so it may have damaged the vessels that conduct water and nutrients to the foliar crown, and that could be a reason for decline.
