Saving Sam - Abandoned Puppy (long read)

[325to1195]

Dogs are the truest, most loyal friends there are..... Most don't deserve the love and trust that dogs give us. Congratulations to you and Sam, and may you have many happy years together

Greatness. My friend says: "you never find a dog... the dog finds you."

I like dogs better then most humans. I also like and appreciate people like yourself that look out for dogs. Kudos to you sir

Loyal to a fault Lol She cries when I leave a room full of people. When I shower, she scratches at the door... So I let her in. Then she's peaking in the curtain, trying to get in. Hopefully she'll grow out of it after a while.

Lol that won’t change. My lab is the same way, if I’m not paying attention he’ll actually jump in the shower with me haha

What a great Christmas story! I'm looking forward to many more stories of you with Sam.

Lol my stepbrother (the hippie in the second pic) said the same

That was a heart warming story. And my Pops always said the same thing about dogs finding you.

That sir will be the best dog you will ever have.

As the "father" of two adopted dogs, I can honestly say, dogs choose their owners,you don't get to choose your dog.
Happy New year

".... I had no intention of keeping the dog..."

ararararar...... (-;

We have a couple of adopted dogs, too. We adopted one from a shelter. Another one was on our front porch one morning. I'm not sure who adopted who.....

Looks like a sweet pup! Any idea what breed/breeds she's a mix of?

From the best the vet could tell, Shepherd mix. Although at certain angles, she looks a bit coyote-ish Lol Her paws aren't huge so we're pretty sure she wont get too big.

Great read, thanks for sharing and having a kind heart to take in "Sam"!

[EarleyBird]

Good stuff.

As stated....those do make the best dogs! Had a lab mix wander up to my parents house when I was a kid. Dora was the best dog a little boy ever had. Trained her when I was 8 and retrieve doves like nobody's business.
