Samwise Shortshanks

Our little dog Sammy died today. She was only eleven years old and she didn't seem sick or anything. We woke up this morning and she was in her crate not moving. So, C and Daddy buried her in the back yard and said a prayer over her. She was a mixed breed. We know that her mom was half cocker spaniel and half beagle, not sure what her daddy was, but by the looks of Sammy we are guessing he was dachshund. Sammy was a bit tempremental and a bit odd, but we loved her. She will be missed.

When I told N and E this morning they both seemed very distraught and said, "Oh how sad. When can we get another dog?" Carlie said, "Cereal." She hadn't eaten breakfast and she's only two, so who can blame her. The oldest was the only one to show any emotion about it. Our other dog did a little dance and ate some marshmallows. Jasmine was very jealous of Sammy and Sammy let Jasmine run all over her even though Sammy had seniority.

It's always sad when a pet dies. Sammy was a very cute dog. She and Conner had some good times together. Goodbye sweet Sammy.
