Porter was the most gentle soul and we are so lucky to have been able to share a life with him for almost 11 years. He was extremely quirky, which fit in with our family perfectly. His favorite sources of water were a Christmas tree watering can and filthy puddles. He would curl into a tiny donut and FAKE snore loudly when he didn’t want to go out. Even though he was part lab, he hated getting his precious paws wet. Such a sweet weirdo.
Porter wasn’t even supposed to be ours since there were several applications ahead of us at his rescue. As fate would have it, the other applications fell through and we picked up our boy on New Year’s Eve 2013!
He taught us so many things, including how to be gentle with yourself and others. He taught us to love beyond measure and how to appreciate the small things. There is no such thing as enough time with our boy, but he was ready to go. His body had done all it could.
Our hearts are breaking, but we know that we did everything we could for him, including the most loving send-off. Thank you so much for guiding him home on his last adventure,
