New Arrivals at the Sampson House




Meet Charlie and Susie, the newest additions to the Sampson Family! We just adopted two large and adorable chocolate labs. They belonged to a friend of a friend of a friend of an old man who couldn't take care of them. Since they were going to be put down unless a home could be found, we decided to take them. Suzie is the one in the pink collar, Charlie in the blue. They are brother and sister and love to play fetch. They are also trained hunting dogs, whatever that means. But I guess if I ever decide to shoot a rabbit or pheasant or something, they will retrieve it for me. They also love to play in the pool, relaxing on the top step to cool off or jumping in after a ball. Apparently they lifeguard too. When my sister got in the pool to swim, Susie tried to save her by tugging on her arm.
