First solo visit


Yesterday was our first solo visit to the hospital. Samson seemed to be a little lonely since we used to go with a partner, but they retired from the hospital. Hopefully he warms up to it after awhile.

The hospital was a little slow, not many people to visit with. So we mostly visited with the staff. We did meet a very interesting girl, who was not much older than me. She was having a panic attack and cussing people out, but when she saw Samson she calmed down. She was petting him and giving him kisses and she was telling me about her three cats she has at home, then we had to go visit the other rooms and she started to panic again, hopefully they got her some meds haha.

There was a traveling nurse in the ICU that has a Boxer that looks just like Samson, but with more white on this nose. He asked me if Samson was up for adoption, ummm NO!! He all mine :) It's amazing how many people have Boxers, and its so fun to chat about their crazy antics and to see their face light up when they talk about them. Another nurse has two and she was telling me they bought a couch, just for the Boxers! When they were buying it from the furniture store, the sales guy thought they were crazy buying a couch just for their dogs...I guess hes never been owned by a Boxer before!

When it was time to leave I asked one of the volunteers at the front desk to hold Samson so I could cool my car down(its was 108 yesterday!) when I got back Samson has a whole crowd around him and he was wiggling all over the place, but when I took him back he jumped on me like "WHY did you leave me?!". He's such a mommas boy.
