Sammy, my mom’s new sheltie puppy. After Beauty passed away, we were all incredibly distraught. She was my dog and I felt like I had abandoned her by leaving home. I don’t think I’ll ever quite get over that. I don’t know. But my mom’s lonely, with me gone and Beauty gone and my sister leaving for college next year, so we got Sammy. My mom’s able to appreciate him so much because of everything Beauty has given us and taught us. This was his first night at the house, but I couldn’t get a good picture. He keeps squirming and running around everywhere.
