Special Little Lady

I received a lovely note along with some special photos the other day. In fact it was actually three notes, with photos to go with them so we're in another part 1 today. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did when I received it.

I have been privileged to foster this tiny boxer girl.  She was born with a cleft palate, the vet refused to do her tail and dews and wanted to put her to sleep then and there. The owners of the litter refused and tube fed her until she could eat on her own. In spite of the vet saying that she was going to die anyway, she has thrived. She was kept with the rest of the litter between feedings. The vet had said "no need".  I'd be finding a new vet!

She weighed 6 lbs at 8 weeks. I had the honor of naming her, and chose Portia.
