#american hairless terrier

Oh, last night Sam was so happy to have me home but it’s like he couldn’t trust I was really there unless he could also see Chris. He kept waking me up and going to Chris and crying until I went with him to see Chris. And then we’d sleep a bit and then he’d start pacing so I went back to my room so Chris’ didn’t get woken and that would last for ten minutes and he’d get up and cry until we went back.

I just got done talking a bath and Sam insisted on being in the tub. He likes to sit by the drain and doze in the hot water and I mostly just wanted to soak for as long as possible. He no longer has such a broken porcelain skin texture now. He got a massage and shampoo. He keeps trying to get me to play but then doesn’t want to leave my sight to actually play fetch

Porcelain neck. He looks so dumb. It’s basically like a blown coat but it’s all millimeters long furs and skin.

I would just wake up to see him sleep staring at me. I think my favorite was his face in my sweater pocket,

Oh that’s adorable. These photos somehow have such an ethereal vibe

Reunited and it feels so good!!

You can hear him scream cry because he finally got to see me.

Sam just doesn’t understand why Chris isn’t happy. He worked so hard to drag Chris’ heavy work sweater to the opposite side of the buulding. That’s where Sam did the special new service he’s offering . They’re custom water bed. With just a small monthly fee he can keep on the preventative maintenance (it’s putting it into his waterbowl.

Just a dog and his boy <3

My health has been very poor lately but I’m mostly stable right now!)

Met up with @the-adventures-of-dave yesterday and it was quite fun. Mostly stayed masked or distanced and we are both vaccinated. We finally got to do our Galaxy Day, just a year later!

I got to pet Kepler a bunch and she got Sam to do some tricks!

The first half of the video is the way Sam insisted on sitting in the car and the second is Sam doing tricks!

Happy gotcha day Sam!!! Four years ago I flew round trip to Nashville airport to pick up this tiny hairless puppy. I was a swirling mix of anxiety and excitement, terrified that I was duped and he was just a shaved rat terrier puppy. This pup immediately won me over so completely and it seems like I won him over as well. Even by the time we got to Edmonton airport in Nisku he wasn’t willing to let me out of his sight. He cried the entire time I was in the washroom and immediately snuggled back into my arms. That night he slept under the blanket snuggled in between my chest and my arm as the little spoon. He now prefers to sleep with my legs as a pseudo bolster bed and will forcibly move my legs so he can get snuggled with his head on my knee. There have been a ton of ups and downs but he’s a sometimes frustrating but always adored little guy. Cheers to four amazing years, pup.

He now has a fancy dress shirt

And a dino hoodie

He can catch a tossed kibble

Apparently he looks like a little kid who has just been picked up from school and is pouring now because mom said we can’t get McDonald’s on the way hone

Kisses from Sam

Statue dog

This is Sam and my brother’s routine when he leaves. It’s such a cute goodbye kiss.
