I have been devastated every since you were diagnosed with malignant melanoma of the mouth back in May. We spent the whole rest of summer doing the things you loved, camping every weekend, car rides, and walking on the beach. I have always said that you were the best Christmas present I ever got and that is still the case. I have been crying for 12 hours straight. Two weeks ago I recorded you baying in the yard on your morning patrol, thank goodness I did as one week later you stopped baying. This last week you started to struggle using the bathroom and eating less. Since you hated going to the vet I paid extra for them to come to our home. Absolutely the right call as you took your last breath laying beside me on the couch. I cannot believe you are gone, who will sit beside me? Thank you Mister Sam for 15 years of the best dog I have never known. I am so glad that I didn't listen to the vet and put you down right away, we ended up having 129 more days together that I will always cherish! I will love you and miss you forever! Mom 11-3-23 Hey Sambo, One month has passed and I still look for you everyday. Mornings are so very quiet without your morning yard patrol. I truly hope your are running and baying again in heaven. Look for Ginger & Dixie dog, you always loved Dixie.Love & Miss you, Mom 12-25-23 Merry Christmas Sambo, I miss you still everyday. I got a new beagle puppy named Steve. He looks nothing like you but does many things that remind me of you. I hope you are happy in your new place and hope you met up with Dixie dog. I love and miss you Mister. Mom 10-04-2024. I can't believe you have been gone for a year. I still miss you everyday. Sometimes I wake up still thinking you are here. Fishing is not the same without you watching my bobber for me! I hope you have found Dixie dog and Alvin the cat, he passed about 6 mo after you. My new beagle Steve is nothing like you except he likes to sleep in my chair while I hold him. I miss you Sam!! |
