Today we said goodbye to our beloved Sam after a courageous 14 month battle with bladder cancer. At 17.5 years old, he left this world surrounded by the immense love that carried him through every chapter of his beautiful life. š
Rescued from a local shelter at the age of 12, Sam proved that the best stories can begin later in life. He filled every day with his iconic big soft ears, his loud bark that always made his presence known, and a love for food that could never be matched.
He adored his naps, walks, adventures, and soaking up every moment with his Mom and beloved fur sister Stella. His gentle spirit and joyful heart touched everyone lucky enough to know him.
This photo will forever be remembered as Samās final Tongue Out Tuesday ā a perfect tribute to a dog who lived with personality, resilience, and so much love.
Our hearts are broken for his Mom, who gave him the most incredible life filled with devotion, comfort, and unconditional love. Thank you for loving Sam so deeply and showing him what it truly means to be cherished.
Run free, sweet Sam Sam. You will be missed beyond words, but loved forever. š
