Arthur Loder opened SPR-2717 and commented
The reference documentation, Section 16.1.3, states:
"The Spring distibution ships with a complete Spring Portlet MVC sample application that demonstrates all of the features and functionality of the Spring Portlet MVC framework. This 'petportal' application can be found in the 'samples/petportal' directory of the full Spring distribution."
However, the 2.0 release of Spring did not include the Petportal sample application. Here is the forum link in reference to this: http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=29762

Where can I find this sample project?

@catherine-augustine this happened 16 years ago. I can only guess that's what Petclinic became: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-petclinic/

I was just about to say the same as @snicoll, except that I do not believe we still have an example application based on Portlets.
