I've posted this elsewhere but needed to do it here as well.
Well, I just found out yesterday that my puppy (he's 8 but I call all dogs puppies) Samson has cancer. A few days ago he was chasing rabbits around the yard and now he'll probably be gone in the next few weeks. Since the day we found him, he's been like our first child. My wife and I had been trying for 4 years to have a baby, she was getting a bit depressed so I decided to bring something home for her to love and he was the perfect choice. One month later we were happy to learn that she had become pregnant and we prepared him for the new addition in the months to come. From the day my daughter came home she and Samson were best friends, he would bring her the toys she wanted and protect her from everything. He's never had a mean bone in his body, everybody loves him from the neighbors to the mailman, UPS Driver, FED-X, etc. People would bring family members who have been afraid of dogs their whole lives to meet him and after a few meetings they would be comfortable around him. At 85-100lbs he thinks he is the worlds biggest lap dog. He's always been the most behaved dog as well. He never takes anything that isn't his, from toys to food. I don't even worry about closing the front gate over the driveway since he will not leave the yard unless we tell him it's OK. I needed to post this so he's never ever forgotten. I'm really, really going to miss my buddy.
