Life without Sammy

Well unfortunately we never could find Sammy a new home. We tried several avenues over the past 6 weeks. We even tried to reintroduce Sammy and Chloe to each other at my parents house over Labor Day weekend and that did not go so well. Luckily we were able to avoid any stitches this time. So unfortunately we had to do the really tough thing of surrendering Sammy to the Hamilton County Humane Society last night. It was extremely sad especially for me (Kyle). I am man enough to admit that I was crying quite a lot.

The Hamilton County Humane Society is a great place. They are a no-kill shelter, no matter how full they get. Last night the place was packed and in just the short 20 minutes we were there I saw a couple of adoptions in progress. So hopefully a nice family without other dogs will come through and see how great Sammy really is. She's beautiful, has a great personality, and loves every person she's been around. If you know of anyone interested, please send them there and have them ask about Sammy.

Thankfully we are allowed to call periodically to see if she has been adopted or not. We are praying that it happens soon. Before we took her there last night, we took some pictures. We also tried to make her last few days in our house memorable.
