Sam was my first Border Collie - adopted from the county animal shelter. He was steadfast, aloof, strong and my heart-dog. This photo was taken about a month before he unexpectedly died. I clearly remember this day, a Saturday, because the weather was just turning into fall. It was cold, overcast and dewy and I wanted to get the dogs to Kitty Hawk and run, run, run. It was Sam's favorite thing to do.

"always bright your shining light...shining bright when you walked with us...a pillar of quiet strength. of dignity. of reserve. beautiful amber eyes...always sought and to be forever admired in wonder and amazement."
