Another side to Samish

Poor Samish.  When there is a foster dog at your foster home who takes as much time as Langley does, it's tough to get blog time.  While Langley whines and whistles and bays for attention, Samish is content to find a soft spot and kick back until you have time for him. It is a really nice change to have such a sweet guy in the house.
Samish, getting his snuggle on...

In our earlier post about Samish, I talked about what an avid hunter he was outside - so much so that we feared he'd get out of the yard while on a chase and now I need to leash him when he's out there. One would think that a boy who is that intense outside would be intense in the house as well but that's not the case here.  When inside Sam turns into a laid back mellow boy and his greatest love is getting some lap time.  When I'm on the computer he's happy to just lie across my lap as I type. If you are reading a book he is just over the moon to stretch out beside you and have a long, warm, snugly snooze.

It's tough not to fall for this sweet little boy.  While he will need a kid free home due to some stiff joint problems in his hips, and will need someone who can carefully supervise him at all times when he is outside, even in a fenced back yard, he is worth his weight in gold since he's such a personable, undemanding little guy.
