Adopter Update: Samson (formerly Satchmo)

Hi Sandra,

Wow a full year.

Happy GOTCHA Day Samson !!

A full year since you joined our family, wow. It has been an amazing year big boy, a long road of fun, love and care. After arriving on October 2, 2010 Samson immediately became part of the family. His sister Molly accepted him right away, showing him the ropes and keeping him in his place (typical woman), while showing him love and care as he regained his health. Samson and Molly are now inseparable; he always looks for her when they are out together.

While it took a lot of time, experimenting and patience to get Samson back to 100% health, in June of this year we could finally declare him 100% healthy. A big thank you to all the vets at Campus Estates in Guelph for providing a great mix of medication and common sense in his journey.

Thank you to Newf Rescue for finding and giving this big boy a second chance. In case you are wondering the 75 pound boy is now 34 inches at the shoulder and weighs in at 132 pounds, and he is still growing.

Julie and I are looking forward to the many years of joy and love ahead of us with this big love hound !!!

Cheers

Neil
