We first met Sam on November 1, 2016 and here is an excerpt from the DogBlog that he prepared for that first day. 

'I'm Sam and this is my first stay with the gang here in Seaforth. As you can see I'm a Shih Tzu and like Cocoa, The Big Boss around here, I like to strut around and be bossy. Mind you, I don't seem to make a big impression on the other critters like Cocoa does but apparently he's had many years to perfect his technique. I've never seen a lip curl quite like his and I'll be working hard to try and duplicate it ...'

The next six years brought us many visits from Sam and he continued to enjoy meeting new friends and showing off his Big Boss attitude. We hope he and Cocoa are having a good time showing off their Big Boss skills across the Rainbow Bridge.
