I'm sad to tell our friends that Samantha Jane crossed the Bridge today. She fought the Bone Cancer since March, was as tough as nails but it finally was just too much for her. She was happy to the end and enjoyed a buffet this morning of a 4-egg cheese omelet, 8 strips of turkey bacon, a chicken breast, several pieces of beef jerky, a heap of liver treats and an entire container of Cool Whip. Thanks to everyone who loved her, followed her blog adventures and supported us through the years.
We haven't been keeping up with the blog (and that's going to change) but I wanted to share some pictures from the Basset Hound Shuffle a month or so ago plus pics of Sam last night and today. (That's her thermal underwear shirt she slept in so the hot water bottles weren't against her skin)
She will be sorely missed around here, the boys won't have anyone to boss them around and be scared of anymore. A couple of my favorite pics from the past....such a sweet, sweet (and stubborn) girl.
We love you...
Run free, sweet woofer girl! Give our love to the pack that I'm sure welcomed you with happy tail wags.
ReplyDeleteWe are so sorry. What great photos. They show what a character she was and how much she was loved.

Sorry Maryann. Just updated Pippa's and had a quick scroll down the list - saw the title on the blog, and well, I guess I knew what to expect.
ReplyDeleteYou have been such a star with all these lovely dogs, and maybe had a few more journeys to the bridge than you have deserved. It would still be nice if there were more people like you around though.
Thinking of you all.
K, oh, and Pippa xx

I am always sad to see another one of our beloved friends cross over the bridge. Sam looks like quite a gal and well loved. No doubt she is enjoying a slice of wallmellon over the bridge with her pal, Wally.
