How can I begin to describe my best friend?  It's been a few months now since she passed away, but the pain is still there.  Even as I'm typing this, tears are coming to my eyes.  I wonder if I did the right thing every day.  Even though my head knows that she's happier now, my heart is still broken.  



Sammie was such a beautiful dog.  She was a husky/lab mix.  She had huge amounts of energy.  She loved running and playing and wrestling with my husband, her Daddy.  She did this funny little dance whenever she was super hyper and excited.  She would run around in circles and then all of a sudden freeze.  When one of us would move, she'd do it all again.  My kids love to watch the video of Sammie doing her dance.

Sammie loved us all so much.  She would protect us and the kids all the time.  Sometimes it could be frustrating, but we knew she was just showing her love and protecting us all.  Sammie loved massages with the back massager.  Whenever I had the back massager out, Sammie would wait, and stretch out on the couch for her turn.
