This handsome boy is enjoying an amazing life with his incredibly doting Dad. They are now living in MEXICO.

Update on Brain

Our former foster, Brain (fka Porter) is living a new adventure with his amazing Dad. They have relocated from NYC to his native hometown in Mexico!  

Brain now spends his days basking in the sunshine, being spoiled by Grandma and cuddling with his little cousins, whom are his new best friends. This handsome & lucky boy is so very loved!!

He is living an amazing life with his Dad, Joseph, who says:  "It's been a spectacular year. I feel like Brain and I know each other for much longer.  He truly is the best, and we were a great match!"

Lucky boys!!!

Happy Gotcha Day Brain!  You definitely fell out of the "Cute Tree" and hit every branch!!

Former Foster Brain - now Porter

Brain's Dad contacted me to let me know that Brain had a Stage 2 Mast Cell tumor removed. The tumor was in the rib/belly area and luckily was relatively small.

Brain is recovering nicely and being extra spoiled by his Dad, who will now be extra vigilant looking for lumps & bumps on his handsome boy!!!

Love that Brain boy!  I love him. Get well sweet boy!

Former Porter (now Brain) says Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from former NEBTR foster Porter, now named Brain. 

Brain is just having a fabulous time with his Dad, living it up in NYC. 

Look at how content his face is and how bright his eyes are! Truly a very happy boy!! (Two of them - his Dad is quite ecstatic as well!)

He re-named him after the cartoon Pinky & the Brain...( see below)

- how cute is that!

Update on Porter, Now Brain

 

I received a lovely update from Porter's adopted Dad! Porter is now known as Brain (as in Pinky & The Brain)!!!!

"Brain" is doing fantastic. No anxiety, no aggression, goes on play dates w other dogs and gets along really really well. He is even working on leaving him in the apartment UNCRATED!! This is an amazing accomplishment even I couldn't do! He had only one incident where he ate a hole in his carrier and ran amuck on the Ferry, but since he is a regular customer, he was scooped up immediately!! (Whew - small heart attack!). Dad has now decided to transport Brain to and from the ferry in a stroller. He said he feels slightly self conscious about it, but thinks Brain is happier & more secure.

I quote "Everyone that meets Brain loves him. He is perfectly chilled and awesome!"

Here are a few new photos of him in repose. My favorite is from the couch fort he made!!

Jen, that makes us all so proud.  Giving our Bostons a second chance to be "great" and look how Porter came through.  Congratulations.
