This is Sammy. AKC registered border collie. Hand raised from the time she was weaned. Has always been a good watchdog and wonderful family protector very intelligent pet. Constant companion, she always knew before I did when I was sick and when my husband became ill and was dying she stayed with him constantly. She loved to have company come and she hated it when you left it was really upsetting to her, but when you got back you are always welcome again. You be her best friend when you came and gave her a cookie and she never forgot you. Sammy was well loved and she knew it. She was 14 when she went to heaven to meet with her sister Annie the cat those two live together for a long time and those two were really a pair.
