Spoiled boy. One of the few pics where he didn’t have a stolen sock near him .. But he took all the stuffed toys with him for a nap
Samson aka Lunkhead. Diagnosed with osteo on11/12/20, passed before he could fight it 11/20/20. You came to me to save me after my Loki passed 1 month later in 2/16 and we had 4.5 great yrs . You were the greatest boy . I couldn't ask for anything more from you but you have me so much more .. The clown of the house ... Daddy will always love and miss you .Stay safe and happy on the other side of that bridge and teach them your soccer moves ...
Samson’s close up “portrait pictures”are always Noble, and gentle and Mighty all at the same time.
I don’t think any dog has ever enjoyed his toys like Samson.
Spoiling a dog is a pleasurable for us hoomans as it is for the dogs
Athena is so beautiful. I love the bone structure of her face. . Her name fits her perfectly.
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Thank you…
Here’s a pic of Athena claiming Samson’s toys both in and out of his kennel while he was napping next to her

I figured since Samson’s original owners never let him be a puppy and he had 1 toy only and they never let him roam the house to play or play with his 1 toy . Then I was gonna let him go crazy and enough life and have all the toys he could ever need … Talk about letting a wild child out out the box !!! He would grab his rope toy with the ball on the end ( both the rope ball and the rubber ball end) and swing them around clunking himself and everything ? everyone around him while at the same time jumping and bucking like a wild horse !!! I so wish I recorded those times

Aww what beautiful playtime memories!
Many years ago when we were filming with PBS for the Nature episode that featured our Jerry, he did something really adorable. I said in front of the director, “Dang I wish I had caught that on camera!” You know what she said to me?
“You did, you got it with this camera,” which she said while pointing to my brain. It made so much sense, and I’ve never forgotten it. Media can get lost or erased or destroyed, but our memories remain forever.

Yes, you just did capture the moment for us and shared the visual beautifully! I love how Jerry’s people had the same thing confirmed thru the Director.
Goodness knows you made sure Samson had a happy PUPPYhood every moment of every day!

Now that’s a puppy dog stare! What an irresistible look. If only he knew what was in the jar when he looked so adorable.
