I was thinking today about how many jobs Sam has: storm sewer inspector, squirrel and cat herder, neighborhood patrol, people walker, pee-mail editor, personal trainer, kitchen sanitation, couch warmer, bathroom attendant, alarm clock, and therapist. He has no idea that in two more days he’s going to be promoted to puppy sitter.

Yay! a puppy. Can’t wait to see “baby” photos.
Oh, there will be photos. 🙂
I LOVE this Jill, he’s such a joy and will be a great big brother, thanks for sharing.

“bathroom attendant” made me laugh out loud!!
Good luck with the puppy…. and this big guy, the glossy black—-lovely!
It’s ridiculous — Sam thinks we can’t shower or go potty without his help. 🙂
He is so handsome, and look at that gleaming coat!
Excited for all of you for the new puppy. You are braver than I am – I love puppies but our last one when I was 40 just about broke me! Haha
He gets pumpkin with each meal and a skin & coat supplement with all kinds of good oils in it. I think the only way to have a puppy is to have waited long enough since the last so that you forget how much work it was. I am going to just keep reminding myself that it’s really the first three months that are the hardest, which is why it’s a good thing they are so darned cute!
Thank you for the info! I will try that with mine.
You are a wise woman – and cute will definitely make those 3 months go easier 🙂 Enjoy!
