This is Sammy. He was a precious dog, anxious, didn’t like being out of sight of his mother. Sammy was almost 16. He would have been next month.

Sammy crossed the Rainbow Bridge this morning. I went early to spend the time with my friend before the veterinarian came to the apartment. She was so kind and loving in a moment when my friend needed a soft, kind touch.

My friend’s son also came to be with his mother during this time. I’m glad he did. It meant the world to his mother for him to be there.

Sammy will be missed. Despite his separation anxiety, he was a good little companion for my friend.

Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.
