Sam's 1st Gotcha Day - A bit long

A year ago today a very special friendship began the moment Sam & I met.
.
We have experienced 4 different seasons together and I've made the poor guy do so many crazy & new-to-him things.

He experienced the joy of galloping through the waters of Georgian Bay


Discovered a penchant for picking apples and hiding them in his bed.



Hauling leaves.


Being made to look silly for the Santa Claus Parade.


Went to draft classes - dismal behaviour there - but still got his own cart. (Can you say spoiled?)


Went to the Water Workshop - again not a star - but did swim for the first time - even with a severely sinking bottom end!!!!


Now has his own lifejacket so he doesn't sink :groovy:


Gets to go to work with me every day and is loved by all the guys! :D


He is a sweet, gentle, goofy boy who doesn't care about being a talented athlete or scholar :D but is just happy to be......he does lean and sleep very skillfully. :!rolling:
Can't believe it's only been a year, it feels like we have always been together!

My Boy! :hugs:

Oh Sharon. The love you have for Sam just resonates and you guys have become such an integral part of NN and Newf Friends. A match made in heaven !!! If anything was ever meant to be it was the 2 of you becoming a family. Your thoughtful posts and wicked sense of humor are so much fun... and you are just the best !!! :alc:

Happy GOTCHA Day Sam! You look so incredibly happy.
Don't worry though, you're not by yourself in the "just happy to be" club. I have three more club members right here.

Happy gotcha day Sam!
This story is so sweet ...the love, the bond ...it's heartwarming :hugs:

Everything Kelly said.

And I love that you let him try things, but don't push him if it isn't "his" thing. He hit the jackpot... and I bet you feel the same way! ;)

I love gotcha days it makes you think and reevaluate what they have learnt and how far they have come since we got them.

He looks very happy and is a credit to you
