Leave a bone for Samantha (1967-1970) Nicknames: Sammy Arrival Story: My parents told me they were going to take me to get my birthday present. But they didn't tell me where we were going. We piled into the car and drove off. We arrived at this home in the country. When we went inside, there was a litter of beautiful Westie puppies. My eyes opened wide and a smile came across my face. I started jumping with glee. I picked out Samantha immediately. (I loved my first dog so much that I named my first Westie after her.) Bio: Samantha died early in life. She was killed in a fire in our home. Sammie died of smoke inhalation. She had crawled up on my desk in my bedroom and nestled with all my stuffed animals. The family was just broken over the loss of this beautiful girl. The Groups I'm In: Westies Unite Rainbow Bridge, Westies Unite
