In memoriam Sammy

Tuesday 13th April 2021

When I adopted this beautiful Bodeguero 5 years and 7 months ago to place with my other SHIN dog, I never expected that she would become my soul mate. When we drove home from the airport she had already accepted us, still very scared but such a fantastic dog.

The next morning she took my sandwich from the table and ate it within 5 seconds and everything was forgiven her and it stayed that way.

When she fell ill in June last year, we nurtured her like a baby until she had to go to the clinic for the first time with pancreatitis. Phew, got through that, then to Italy on holiday where she fell ill again, to the vet, and then she turned out to have diabetes.

We also got through that, every morning and evening an injection and Sammyke became her cheerful self again. Then she became blind within 3 days, so on to the ophthalmologist to have her eye operated on, but unfortunately it did not work out anymore. Last Thursday she did not want to eat anymore, went to the vet on an IV and when she came home again on Friday there was a bit of hope. On Saturday she turned completely yellow at 2 o'clock and in the afternoon I had the put the love of my life to sleep peacefully in my arms.

Dear Sammy, thank you for all the wonderful years where you were who you were, my greatest treasure, my child, my everything ... I love you so much, rest in peace ... I will never forget you, love 💘💘
