Otter

Otter was a miniature Australian Shepherd who my late wife purchased from a breeder south of Portland. She loved Aussies and our last one had died a few months prior. I told her that we should not get a puppy at our age. Of course I lost that argument.
My wife died after a long illness. Our beautiful female yellow lab died in 2019.
It was only Otter and me. We took a long walk every morning rain or shine. He followed me everywhere in the house, slept on my bed and was a faithful companion.

A donation was made in Otter's memory and the memorial was created on March 8, 2022.
