In memory of our beloved Cartman (Lab/Pit, aka Mr. Puppy). Adopted as a pup from our local shelter, he showed his gratitude for that second chance every day, faithfully serving the household with unconditional love and selfless devotion for over 13 years.
A two-time graduate of Barkbusters, he was a versatile communicator with an extensive vocabulary, loved swimming in the pool and long walks, was strong willed but gentle, nearly reformed as a food thief (kept his fondness for sticks of butter), and enjoyed car rides, making nearly 600 trips to/from Tallahassee, and later, multiple trips to SC and NJ, where we lived temporarily for the Daddy’s projects.
To his final day, Cartman showered his affection on us with licks to the ears and followed the Mommy everywhere, always ready to assist.
We believe Cartman’s exemplary life earned him a warm welcome in the afterlife, where he is now free to walkabout and run at will, bark without shushing, swim in the pool no matter the season, and enjoy endless bowls of chicken. We miss you Mr. Puppy and we’ll see you again.
