One Year ago,
We sent our beloved Sam, a Golden Retriever, to the Rainbow Bridge to wait for us. It seems like only yesterday that he was constantly under foot and wanting to go wherever we went. Always in the way and never knowing where to lay or which way to turn. With the medication, for seizures, he was on, he was a clumsy oaf, sometimes falling and sometimes not knowing where he was. We SO loved that guy and have yet to get over him, so much so that we haven't replaced him either. I will say it is easier travelling without a dog, BUT, it is a lot less fun. Sam went everywhere with us and especially loved walking the trails in Oregon and Washington.
We have thought of getting another, but don't feel inclined to start all over, it would have to be a very special buddy.
When I think of Sam now a bit of water appears in my eyes, don't know where that comes from. There will always be a special place in my heart for Sam. My only consolation is knowing he is waiting for me and we will be together forever someday.
I miss you Sam!!!!
