Birthday: April 15th 2000 Likes: Food, food, and food! Laying in the sun, going to obedience class (treats!), naps, snuggling, eating the parrot seed that Mommy's African Grey, Pepper, throws all over the floor. Pet-Peeves: The vet, nail clipping, when he doesn't get to go with Mommy when she goes somewhere, when Mommy takes one of the other dogs somewhere and not him, small portions of food. Favorite Toy: Mommy's shoes, he likes to carry them everywhere! Favorite Food: People food! Cheese, chicken, hot dogs, turkey, anything tasty! Also, he loves "cookies" -- Old Mother Hubbard cookies. Favorite Walk: Any walk with Mommy! Best Tricks: Sit pretty -- he can do it forever! Looking really cute, plus he's good at obedience stuff like sit and down. He can also roll over and speak. Arrival Story: Sammy's Daddy, Robert, got him before we were married. He answered a "free puppy" poster that was posted in front of the market. Both Robert and his sister were going to get a puppy at the same time, so they went together. The place was sort of "backwoodsy", but the people were nice enough, and they put a puppy in Robert's arms and one in his sister's, and those were the puppies they got. They told Robert that Sammy was "the cuddly puppy" -- and they weren't kidding! He's still really cuddly! I met Sammy when he was a year and a half old. I ended up marrying his Daddy, and I brought with me my two dogs, Misti and Bob, who became his big brother and sister. It was not long before I became very close with Sammy. He is my sweet little shadow dog, and he loves to go anywhere I go. When I first met him, he didn't like car rides and would throw up in the car. But I loved to take him places with me and it wasn't long before he learned to love to go. I am SO happy that Robert had Sammy -- he the the best Wedding present I could ever get! Bio: Sammy is the sweetest, most loving, affectionate dog. He is the most well-behaved of my dogs; he is nearly perfect, having no real faults at all. He does like to carry my shoes around the house, which is really cute, although I sometimes can't find a shoe because he took it in the backyard with him. He is a "follow-dog", my little shadow. Even when the other dogs go outside to play (we have indoor/outdoor access for them and they have a big fenced yard they can go into whenever they want), he stays inside with me. When he isn't right next to me, it's because he's sunning himself on the back deck. He is a joy in all situations. We have great fun in obedience class (positive reinforcement only!) and he is the perfect walking companion. He's VERY smart and learns fast, so he knows lots of fun tricks and is a joy to teach. He does tend to get a little chubby, but he eats light food and we walk together to keep it under control. He loves food, though, and I do indulge him sometimes with Old Mother Hubbard cookies and also training treats. He's not only a great dog to walk with, but a great dog to relax with, because he loves to sit or lay next to me and snooze while I read or watch a movie. He even likes to get into my lap while I'm watching a movie, and he's a big boy! I love it, though, because I am just so crazy about him. He is, simply, the sweetest dog, and I am blessed to have him in my life. Forums Motto: Cookie? The Groups I'm In: BadDogs, P*I*F (Paw it Forward) Stuff I LOVE!: Cookies, Cookies, Cookies!!!

You know why I love Halloween? It's not because of carved pumpkins or scary movies... it's because there's not only "trick", but there's "TREAT!!" Yay for treats! I love treats!
On Halloween, I plan to not trick, just treat, at my house! For Halloween I will be a...hmmmm... well, I'll just be a hungry old dog, and I will follow Mommy around waiting for her to give me a treat! Why not do this? Isn't Halloween a night for giving out treats? It IS!! YAY!!! I can't wait for Halloween!!!
Started my day with a nice Coffee Walk... It's a beautiful morning and there were lots of good sniffies to be had. I love checking my morning pee-mail while Mommy sips her coffee :)
Soon, my other favorite morning thing will happen: breakfast!
