Samson is the snuggliest dog we've ever had. That's saying something because we've always indulged our pets to cuddle up on furniture, and we generally treat them like babies. However, this little burrito has been especially cuddly lately. He misses Rosie, his constant companion for the 9 years of his life, and he won't leave my side.
On the evening of her passing, he sat in front of the fireplace exactly where we said goodbye to Rosie. He just sat there. Alone. He stayed there for a good ten minutes by himself. I swear he felt her. For several days after, he would go to "her spot" every morning and evening looking for her. He sniffed around and seemed a bit confused that neither she nor her stuff was there.
Sammy-Boo is getting lots of extra love and attention from the family because we're all feeling the loss, too. I guess we all need a little snuggling...and perhaps a bigger bed.
