I've not been around much recently as my Mum passed away a few months ago She'd been fighting cancer for about 18 months and one of her biggest worries was what would happen to her beloved Sam when she passed. I'd promised her that he could come to live with us.
So here are a few pics of him, not brilliant ones but I'm sure there will be more to come. He's quite puppy like in a lot of respects, but is 10 years old now. He's on a diet - was a whopping 26.9kgs when he arrived, which for a small border collie I'm told is rather large! He has lots of fatty lumps, but as they don't bother him much we're leaving them alone.
Looking at Sam often makes me think of other not-so-fortunate oldies that end up in kennels, or worse, because they don't have family to take them in.
And my fave pic of him so far;
