Porterhouse
"Reno" now known as Porterhouse.  He lives in Canton, MI with Jeff and Kim.  
Hi Tania, I hope all is well! I attached a couple pics. He
seems like he has changed so much since we first
brought him home. He is a feisty little guy when he is
awake and as soon as he starts to get a lil sleepy he is
the biggest sweetheart and just wants to cuddle. He also
has a love of socks! on the feet and off lol a few times
he has ran out of our room with a sock in his mouth. All
in all though he has been the greatest puppy, everyone
he meets falls in love. I hope you guys were able to
enjoy this memorial day weekend. Take care!

Love Kim, Jeff and Porterhouse :)
Its been awhile, figured I would send you an update!
Porterhouse went to the vet today he is 20lbs! Dr.
McClure says he is doing great. He is such a loveable
little rascal. He seems to have a lot of black spots on his
skin but not on his fur, we only see them after a
bath...looks almost like a dalmation! the brown spots on
his ears have gotten darker too. He is just too damn
cute! He has made lots of other puppy friends too :)
there is a dog every week at Jeff's baseball games and
all he wants to do is give her kisses. He is a little
stubborn when we go for walks but he loves to play
fetch! he has also learned to come when called, to sit
and to give paw to shake. I hope all is well and that the
other puppies are staying in touch too. Take Care!

Hi, Porterhouse went to the vet yesterday for his 2nd
shot, I wasn't able to go with him but Jeff took him. I was
told he was a very good boy that he had all the girls in
an uproar over how cute he is, that happens everywhere
he goes though. They weighed him in at 14.7, I don't
want him to grow so fast! they also trimmed his nails and
he didn't mind a bit. His next appointment is 3 weeks
from now. Glad you liked the pictures, I will send some
more next week.
Hi, yes the black spots around his eyes are getting bigger, the
right eye has a nice line of black on the bottom and the left eye
still has that black tear mark but the outside corner is lined
black. I was comparing the pictures of his momma and daddy
with him and at first I thought no his ears flop forward like his
mom's but he also folds them back a lot too like his daddy's all
depending on what he is doing.  I don't know if eventually they
will look a certain way or what, maybe as he gets bigger they
might fold back more. He is such a funny puppy though, he just
always cracks us up. We got him a soccer ball that he can't
puncture and he head butts  it and kicks it all over the yard, I
think he could run around all day with that thing if we let him.  
Hope all is well, take care!
Hi Tania and the rest of the gang!

I'm so sorry its been so long since the last time I sent
you an update on Reno aka Porterhouse. We have
been a busy little family this summer, he has gotten to
love his walks through the neighborhood. I know all the
names of the dogs in the neighborhood better than the
names of the neighbors themselves. He is a real sweet
puppy, such a little lover! His favorites are rawhide
rollups....and shoes! He is also a great fetcher! he loves
to play in the yard with his soccer ball he rolls around it
and head butts it everywhere. He is really good with
other animals, he is very calm quiet and curious when
he meets new dogs even when they are barking and
jumping around, but once they calm down then
Porterhouse is ready to play with them lol. Everywhere
we go he gets compliments from everyone and he loves
the attention. The last one that is face on of him is what
he looks like when he is woken up! he has also
outgrown his lil puppy bed but he still loves to sleep in it.
 Take care!

Thanks so much for the card! it was soo cute! Porterhouse had a
nice birthday today! hopefully all the other pups did too! There is a
local doggie bakery here that sells all of these natural dog treats
and we ordered him a peanut butter dog bone cake, even though
he could have ate the whole thing he did save a lot of it to share
with some of his puppy friends :) Hope all is well with everyone!
Take care, Porterhouse says Hi!!
Last week we took him tawas state park for the day to visit
some friends camping and we walked him to the beach
and he wanted nothing to do with the water! he did
however have a blast digging in the sand!  take care!
Porterhouse is doing great, growing up fast and strong. He
has a tendency to stick his bottom lip out and look at you
and I swear he is thinking "if I just pout and look at them with
my big puppy dog eyes I can never get in trouble" lol he is
so silly and a very big sweetheart. I hope to get more
pictures uploaded to the computer soon, I will send more
when I can. Take care!

Wow those pictures are great, I can't believe the size
difference between those two! Porterhouse is 70.2
lbs and I would say roughly 19 inches tall from
shoulders. We hope that sometime this summer all
the dogs can meet up somewhere, maybe a dog park
or someplace. The pictures that I attached are all
very recent, the ones outside are from this week and
then there is a picture of Porterhouse and his best lil
buddy Stoli the cat and then the last picture is of the
pup just waking up in one of his favorite places...our
bed :) Can't wait to see pictures of all the other pups
and see how they have grown! Hope everyone is
doing well!
