Tuesday, my friend Mindy came to stay with us for a bit.
A little back story. Mindy is the reason we have Sampson. Mindy and I worked together, and I had mentioned we were looking for a puppy. Mindy’s niece had a dog that was having puppies and the rest is history.
When Sampson was six weeks old, we went to visit him, and we took him through he woods to Mindy’s house where we hung out and played. Sampson is quite fond of Mindy, and was so glad to see her.
You know how when the grandchildren come over, he sleeps right where they are sleeping and won’t let them out of his sight?
Well, Mindy is staying in a room that has no carpet on the floor, so Sampson cannot go in there, for fear that he will slip and do more damage to his legs.
Since Sampson can’t sleep in the room with Mindy, he did the next best thing.
I actually had to coax him away and into the bedroom the first night. Thankfully, he’s settled down since then, and now only waits outside her door in the morning.
He is such a loyal guy and he loves with his whole heart.
Which of course, makes me smile.
You make me smile (or laugh,) the sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do that bring a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.
What did your pet do that made you laugh or smile this week?

That “Butter” sure is a special guy! He does love with his whole heart! I told you that you’d know when you found the right one! 😉😍

Meagan & Merlin says
He’s so beautiful ❤ I bet Mindy felt very special with being looked out for by a gorgeous boy like Sampy. Dogs are so full of love.
Mary Hone says
Awwwww, that’s so sweet.
Shadow and Ducky's Mom says
Sampson’s such a sweetheart! Glad he was able to settle down, bless him. ❤️
Monika & Sam 🐾 says
Oh my gosh, that is beyond precious! Whoever said dogs do’t have a memory didn’t know Sampson!
Jan K says
Oh, Sampson is so sweet!!
Luke made us smile tonight when he was obsessed with the wood pile out on the patio. Apparently, some creature had passed through there and he spent I don’t know how long just staring and pawing at the wood pile. Cricket used to get obsessed with things like that, so he made us think of her and that made us smile, though a bit sadly. We still miss her so much.
