Sammi

Once again, I will be posting Wordy Wednesday on Thursday; today, I'd like to introduce you to my new friend Sammi.

I found Sammi on the side of the freeway on the way home from Cam's on Sunday night. He was running up the on ramp, and, being my mother's daughter, I couldn't just leave him. So I pulled off and was surprised when he immediately began trotting my way. When I crouched down and offered my hand for him to sniff, he eagerly greeted me with sloppy puppy kisses. I tried getting him in the car, but with no luck.

Fortunately, a moment later, a family in a white Prius came and helped me get him into my backseat. (If you're miraculously reading this, thank you soooo much for your help!) On the way home, he was calm and joyously stuck his head out the window; a family in a car beside me complimented me on my beautiful dog. When I arrived back at the house, my parents were ready with food and water for the adventurer. We set up a bed in the garage and left him overnight, praying he wouldn't freeze, and before I went to bed, I prayed over him, that he would find a good home.

In the morning, my mom and I drove around putting signs up on our half of the city. All day, I waited for a call. And all day yesterday, we waited.

And this morning, I'm pretty sure my mom decided we should just give him a home. Either way, whether he stays with us or not, this is Sammi, in all his morning cuteness:











When Sammi jumps up, he's huge! Probably as tall as I am, and he easily knocks me to the ground... and quickly makes up for it with sweet puppy kisses!
