I knew at that moment he needed to be in his forever home and we need him just as much. Sam has been through so much in his 5 years and he tries to make himself invisible in our house. He hasnt had one accident in the house which is unbeilevable for a dog that spent most of his life in a shelter. He dosent bark, chew or run inside. He mostly finds a far away corner in the house and sleeps. He wont sit close by people or even let you hold him. Yesterday after the groomer he laid next to me (touching me). He is such a great dog and has been discarded by so many people I think he dosent even try to bond. We started the paperwork and Sam will be in his forever home spoiled and loved. How lucky am I that he found us. We are still going to continue to foster. Hopefully the more Sam realizes I wont leave him he will continue to come out of his shell and be a happy healthy dog. |
This brought tears to my eyes. I'm so glad that both Sam and your family will have a happy ending!
My Rory is 9 lbs and has floppy ears. We keep her ears trimmed, but the rest of her is longer. I love his new hairdo!
