We adopted Sam from our daughter, who had him about three years. She had a son, Noah, and this is the doggie they had from a pup. When she became pregnant again Sam had a dry eye that needed care. She asked us to adopt him as they had no other dogs, and had two kids in a small apartment.
Sam Rider II was named after another Doxie in the family that had passed away. Sam loved to go on road trips, but mostly sleeping next to us was his favorite thing. All of our dogs respected Sam's gentleness. He was a silent king—except when the doorbell rang! He graced our lives for fifteen years. We continue to honor Sam for all the great years as a member of our family.
With our vet out of town that weekend, it was comforting to have Sammy pass at home. It is so much more comforting to have closure at home for all the humans and pets. Thank you for your interest in making him a place on your Dog Angel Roster!
