This beautiful little baby came to needs foster due to a tragic change in his families circumstances.
Picture 429.jpgWell our gorgeous little man continues to delight us all here.
He has become a little more settled but will still not stray too far from any available human. He is REALLY affectionate and very calm for a boy of his age and breed. That said, the breed thing is open to discussion – there is certainly something other than sprollie in him, just not too sure what. I reckon he will be a big lad when he has finished growing but he is a very well behaved pup. There are no chewing or play biting issues at all and very little in the way of toilet accidents too He just potters about the place, loving everyone and everything. Sleeps all night without a peep. An all round GREAT little man. CAM_0562.JPGThis little man is developing into a right character!!
Always the more confident of the two, he is even more self assured now – in the nicest possible way. He now knows that if he shares his meal, he will still get enough to eat and if he clambers up on to the sofa, he will find a really comfy place for a rest – and maybe even a human or canine hot water bottle He has become really playful too, just like Sugar, and really curious – he wants to know exactly what is going on all the time!! He is an absolute joy and he will make a fab pet for anyone who chooses to home him (just sad that it can’t be us )CAM_0558.JPGSamuel has been promoted to sleeping with the biggies since his little sis got sick and I would say there is no going back for him now!
He snuggles down at night with them all and there isn’t a peep out of him till morning. He continues to thrive and is getting bigger and ‘boulder’ by the day!!! A total lie, he is a really good little pup but he has become so much more playful in the 12 days or so that he is with us. He missed Sugar when she ‘disappeared’ at first but he has settled into life without her now – bet he will still be glad to get her back though! A great little guy. Everyone who sees him falls in love with him and I am not ONE BIT surprised. Got this beauty weighed yesterday and he is over 10 kilos!!! A fine big man for his age.
He still has the same gentle, playful, affectionate nature though and that is something he won’t lose no matter how big he gets!!! He loves to play, he loves his grub, LOVES his cuddles and adores the bigger dogs. He is missing both Sugar and Thor today as Sugar – although on the mend thankfully – is still in the vets and Thor joined her this morning to have his "little operation". Can’t wait to get both of them home. CAM_0551.JPGWe have been able to see another wonderful side to this little man’s personality in the last week or so. While dropping and collecting my little niece from our local summer project, Samuel has come into contact with hordes of children and he has been amazingly good with them.
He sits quietly and calmly while they rub him and pet him and fuss over him. He is not jumpy or barky or bitey or even licky!!
He just calmly submits to the attention. He is an incredibly calm and gentle pup – even living with "Tornado Thor" hasn’t knocked that out of him!! A great little man.I have been very neglectful and haven’t updated on this fab little man in a while. Samuel continues to be an absolute joy to foster.
He is a very intelligent, affectionate, playful, calm puppy who is growing into a strong and confident dog – he seems to grow by the day!!! He adores all the fun and games that are a regular feature of life in the mad Colgan household and he loves people – ALL people, his own and everyone else. He even likes our cat and loves children. Every time anyone comes in, they are greeted by mad tail wagging from this bouncy fella and you have to pick him up for a cuddle (no mean feat as he weighs a TON!!!) I can’t say enough good things about this guy and whoever gets to home him will be getting a real treasure. CAM_0567.JPGWell, last night proved to be a big night for our little man, Samuel, when Kathy and Kim called to vax and chip him. In typical male fashion – sorry guys!!! – he let his little sister go first. She was SO GOOD and we wondered about Samuel
Well, not to be outdone, there wasn’t a peep out of this great little guy either exploding the myth that the males are big wooses underneath!!! What a great little man. Well, Samuel is just back from a week’s holiday in Clare where he was the star of the show!
A fantastic little guy – he loved the sea, the sand, the waves, seaweed, crabs – you name it, he explored it. Very good on the recall too for such a young dog who had very little practice before we left!!
Hopefully these photos will happen !!!!CAM_0616.JPG
