- June 22, 2015. We brought home a Bernese Mountain Dog and named him Sam. A friendly and gentle giant that would enrich our lives.
June 23, 2022, exactly seven years later, we had to put him to sleep and let him go. The vet had discovered several tumors in his body. We did not want him to suffer. Our world fell down, we cried our heart out when we carried him to his grave in our garden.
For several months I’ve been working on a tribute album with music of John Prine, one of my musical heroes. One of his musical heroes was Blaze Foley, who wrote this beautiful song ‘If I Could Only Fly’. I’d like to dedicate this cover to Sam. The lyrics went well together with some of the many pics and videos that make us smile and cry every time we watch them.
‘Sam Stone’ is the working title of the new album. This song was a smashing hit in the seventies for John Prine. we had Sam’s last picture was printer on a piece of slate.
The worst part of having a pet is saying goodby.😢💔
Agreed.so painful
I never said goodbye just see you later I absolutely hate goodbyes and refuse to ever say that to anyone I love…🙏🏼🐶❤️
They are always there with a welcome and a kiss and lay beside you they protect teach you to live but they never teach you how to live without them there was 7 years between my two cats I had tiger for 13 years before she passed our first meeting she was a little spitfire orphaned at 5 weeks old her and her 4 siblings ended up keeping her it took her siblings a week to warm up to me without hissing took her another week 😂 I didn't care I knew it was mostly from being afraid in a new environment without mom she wouldn't take anything from our dogs they bumped her and she would paw at them other cats she would literally bathe them 😂 still was a spitfire but never to me after those 2 weeks I wouldn't want to bring her back as much as I miss her she gave me a great life and gave me a purpose to continue on without her because I swear every time I feel like I'm struggling with life she comes to visits in my dreams or just to check up as every once in awhile I have a dream of her 😭
How I wish all dogs and owners would live a lifetime together.😔
God bless this puppy, you will be reunited!
RIP, Sam, run free big boy ❤🙏.
BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE OF LOVE...BOTH WAYS. SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, TOGETHER AGAIN ON DAY WILL BE..TRUST IN GOD..AMEN.
Tearing feeling,the loss of our beloved dogs,but don't stop ,cry, he is with you, don't let him leave you, he is right next to you .Believe !🇬🇧
I just lost my Old English Sheepdog. Both OES and Bernese mountain dog breeds only last 8 to 10 years.
RIP Sam. I lost mt sweetest baby girl 6 months ago today and I still cry everyday. I have never been more heartbroken over anything in my entire life. Her brother Bo is right behind her and it just hurts to think he will be gone in a matter of months and I am going to be crushed all over again. 17 yo pugs and they have been my heart, my life, my children. Goodbye Mandy, my sweet baby I will never be whole or the same again. I feel like I've been riding the bus of life and had to stop to let off my babies at the next stop, as they look at me while the bus pulls away with me still on it. It's hard to breath and I can't seem to cry enough.
😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕❤❤❤❤❤
I can totally relate to this. I lost my best Springer 3 yrs ago but think about him still.
My heart understands and breaks for both of you💔💔 Reading the poem “The Rainbow Bridge” numerous times a day when my cats have passed, was the only thing that got me through the following days, months, years. You don’t think life life can’t ever go on without them😭😭 sending love, hugs, & peace♥️🙏♥️
What a beautiful boy
Thank all for giving this wonderful beautiful boy the best life.
It makes me cry. Seven years, so young......
RIP, lovely Sam.
My dog always barked at birdys now he can fly too. Miss best friend i ever had
Your BEAUTIFUL fur baby went to spend his ENTERNAL LIFE with HIS TRUE MASTER, OUR GOD FATHER ALMIGHTY. For HE AWAITS for your arrival into HEAVEN.
RIP sam
I love that song. Losing a fur baby is the loss of love and loyalty that only a dog can give. It is a tragic loss that most people can't understand. Blessings to you in your time of grief.
They are so very precious. We just don’t understand why God doesn’t allow them to live longer. They become so much a part of our family. My ShihTzu was 18, crossed the rainbow bridge 5years ago. I still miss her today.
Beautiful tribute to a life that made your life happy.
Thank you for sharing..
. Rip beutifull fur baby
God gave us pets so we could learn to love.
Very sorry for you and lovely Sam. Only so very young. I lost my very caring friend in October, and some others before him. x
Beautiful dog
Wonderful life!!
Saying goodbye to your best friend pet is very sad! All dogs
go to heaven!🙏❤️
Beautiful Sam, RIP baby 🖤
I lost my German Shepherd Tobi about almost two months. I understand your grief. There’s not a day that I don’t miss him and I still tear up for him. Cancer is the worst, but we did the right thing for not letting them suffer. Only thing we can hold onto is when our time is up, hopefully we can meet our furry buddies again.
Rest In Peace Sam
8 years since I lost my beloved cat Tiger 1 year since I lost my shadow Dobie the winter Dobie passed I knew I was losing him never could get hands on him but he always followed me wherever I went when I went for walks or just outside his walks became halfway then less and less each day till they stopped a month before he passed away in his sleep I knew I was losing him because this dog no matter how much pain he was in arthritis or inbreeding he was a puppy mill rescue falling down he refused to go back and lie down no matter how many times I told it was alright he didn't that winter was when he did finally listen 😭
You gave Dobie a chance at a life with love and a home. Is all they ever want. Their repayment is unconditional love.
Condolences for your loss, gone way too soon. Run free and healthy Sam...
Beautiful
I was scrolling through YT when i saw this video, RIP Sam
Absolutely Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
A wonderful tribute and very moving. Thank you for sharing.
Tomorrow will one week that I had to let my Kaliskablue go to heaven.. We were together for 14 years.. Her whole life by my side! She picked me that day so long ago! She was 3 1/12 weeks old when she crawled out from under the old couch where she had been born.. And from that day on she was my shadow and my protector. She was half Rottweiler and Queensland Blue Heeler and looked both of her breeds! She was my best friend and the only loyal one I ever had! Cancer slowly ate at her for over a year.. Her sister had been taken as well! It was us girl's until the end.. Kaylijo left us on December 28th 2020 and she was 13 when me and Kiki took her to the hospital.. I held them both in my arms untill they breathed their last breaths! I had Kaylijo cremated and I am now waiting for that same process for Kaliskablue! Her body was shutting down and I could see death hovering in her eye's.. But she wasn't ready to leave me in her mind and in her heart! She fought to live and her doctor had to give her a second shot! My heart broke twice last week as She lay in my arm's dying! That day the 26th of September 2022 is the hardest day I have ever had to live through! I feel as if I have betrayed her.. But I know she's in heaven with her sister and Jesus and I know she forgave me for what she had to endure! She is no longer in pain as she also had sever arthritis in her spine and all her joints.. She was having stokes and seizures and bleeding from her nose from the cancer going to her brain! Doc put her on Vitamin-K to stop the bleeds and 2 different pain meds.. But cancer is aggressive and it was time! I miss my girl's.. But Kiki.. Well She was the best.. I am sad from grief and Will always love her far above the rest! My heart is heavy today and tomorrow will be worse because it will just be a week that she finally slipped away! My only happy thoughts are in knowing she and her sister are up there waiting for me when my time comes to take my walk over that Rainbow Bridge! I'm 68 and my heart is getting worse and I know that We will be together in the so far off future.. So I know the sadness you are feeling too having to say goodbye to your best friend.. Who also up there waiting for you! Rest in peaceful bliss and run forever young.. All you fur babies in heaven.. Kaylijo.. Kaliskablue.. I love you! October 3rd,2022...💔💔🐾🐾🐾🐾👣❤❤💯🌹🌹
I have never heard of a dog breed called a Kaliskablue before and i don't think there is a breed called that i think you got the name of the breed wrong.
She is called a Blueweiler.
Wow, fourteen glorious years, she was so blessed bc you are the best mummy, by her side, night & day, days after days.....my queen also went to glory in Aug 2022, after literally spending her entire life 10 yrs side by side, next to me!
Rebeka Jean Believe
They are with you,they will stay until you let them go,or you may not which is beautiful,their presence always there,you will feel peaceful through the pain. Talk to them,they are with you .Best from the UK 🇬🇧🐕🐾🐾🇬🇧
@laurenloukinen5425 She didn't get the breed wrong, that was the dogs name. She specifically says she was a cross between a rottweiler and a blue heeler.
Thank you very much to Sam and his family for being amazingly/divinely perfect! Thank you, Sam for making heaven more perfect!
R.I.P Sam 😭😭😭❤🇧🇪
Wow, Love this so much, Great dedication to my late special Angel's.. Thank you..
Mandy was such a beauty! ❤
What a lovely dog! RIP
What a beautiful tribute for Sam! Thank you, for sharing your families time, with Sam!
RIP beautiful Sam! It is so very hard to say goodbye to our fur babies.
Reminds me of my old dog who loved the sea but now he can run free in the sky with god but I know I will see him again in about 100 years
A great tribute to a great friend.Thankyou.
not a dry eye here
If you want unconditional love get a dog. Everytime one of your dogs dies it takes a piece of your soul with them. All dogs go to heaven because it wouldn't be heaven without them
What a beautiful big boy Sam is I'm so sorry for your loss thank you for taking such good care of him ❤️ it's not goodbye but till you meet again
how beautiful, what a cool dog, i had my American Bulldog put down in November last year, she was the love of my life, my heart is broken, i start crying just thinking about her, thank u for your song, bless you
Such a beautiful boy! I’m so sorry for your loss.🥲🥲
I almost didn't watch since I just said goodbye to my BUDDHA. Then I thought, we all go through this 💔❤️.
One day you will see him again in heaven and I will also see my dog too and start over again from the beginning 😭😭🦮😇
🥺❤💯HI, SWEET !!! 🌈⭐✨💐🐞🍀
This video is a testament to the love and loyalty that you both gave to each other in those seven years together. Sam was a happy and loved boy. Everything in this video reminds me of my sweet Husky girl, Xena. We had to make the same decision for her as well. Cancer tumors cut her life short. It's been 4 months, and I am still feeling her loss. 😢 We were so blessed 🙌 to be her parents for 10 years. She can only live in our hearts ❤❤forever until we meet again. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Sam was such a handsome Precious Canine Angel ! I know the pain of losing Our Canine Family too well. I am certain that In spirit Sam walks with You every step of everyday Loving You Unconditionally and devoted forever. Thank You for Loving Him so Much and sharing a wonderful life with Him !
I'm sorry for your loss. I know how it feels. I lost my Black Labrador last summer due to kidney failure. I have him 7 almost 8 years before the vet had to uthenise him.
Beautiful video, looks like he lived a dogs dream with your family. Never easy to say goodbye, never enough time. Thanks for sharing!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so sad watching this.
RIP Sam sleep well little one
This is a wonderful video. Sam was a lucky boy to have such a loving family. I just lost my Berner, Harley in July so this caused a cascade of tears but also brought back many happy memories
RIP Sam. Such a beautiful furbaby
They are in heaven. Waiting. 🕊
Rip Sam

Lo mejor es lo que queda por siempre Sam
Nicely done. What a beautiful, happy pup. Hoomans and their pups. Be well.
your sweet boy Sam is/was a handsome pup & oc equally fully grown gentle giant; LOVE that Sam is forever resting in his happy outdoor garden, recapturing all those gorgeous nights & rising sunshine where Sam adores.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm watching dog tributes most nights since my big girl died from cancer suddenly, just before Christmas in 2023. She was the best. The love of my life. It feels like I lost a limb. Very disorienting and wildly devastating... and yet... she is still here. She is Everywhere now. I feel her and I feel peace! She did not suffer for long... My heart goes out to all of you dog people. It's a huge, huge loss when they go. ❤🩹
Thank you,my beloved dachshund passed away the same year due to liver cancer
🙏❤️🙏
Such a beautiful sweet pup and a gorgeous wonderful big boy....😭💔🐾💔🐾💔😭.
I am very sorry for your loss it leaves a gap impossible to fill....
I lost my sweet giant baby girl crazy Daisy almost five years ago cause she had cancer and since that day I am heartbroken...
There is no day not thinking on her and crying so much...
She was the sweetest kindest dog you can imagine...
She was my shadow, my soulmate,my baby,my life...
It is still so sad but I know when my time is coming we will be reunited and nothing nothing nothing could separate us !!!
I love you soooo much since day one and sometimes I can feel you at my side and that you are happy there...
When our cat Tyler left us with a kidney disease, he was her best friend, the same evening I felt her again at my side and she told me Tyler is with her now and they are both so happy and Tyler told her to give us a message...
He said he was always very happy and he felt felt our love so much and he loves us to the moon and back 💖💝💖💝💖
R I P SAM. 💔
Sorry for your loss.
This is so sad. I remember when dogs would easily live into their mid teens when I was growing up. My own childhood dog lived well past 17 years old ! He was my best gift on my 6 th. birthday, and died about three months past my 24 th. birthday ! Why is it that SO many dogs are dying from cancer, and other diseases, now, often in the prime of their lives ? I think ALL dog owners need to start asking questions of both their vets - with their many 'recommended' frequent shots and potions, and such - and also the dog food industry, that we rely on TO help keep our pets healthy. WHY aren't they ? WHAT'S really going on here ?
RIP Sam, and condolences to his loving family that he left behind.
I'm so Sorry
You’ll be together again once you pass as well don’t be sad, I promise it’ll be all fine ♥️
♥
im so sorry i hope youll see him again
😥
mooi Renè keep de memorie
I’m so sorry
❤

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️
Heart break . Warm rgds from maiamtiti-titipetadoption ( vietnam)
I uploaded all videos of my late dog osito and turned my channel a tribute to his memory. And, I became vegetarian after realizing the inherent value of all dogs and by extension, of all non human animals...
💙💙💙😞😪😪
Berner Sennenhunde! Steif wie eine Eisenbahnschwelle und ungelenkig bis zum Ultimo!
Der Berner Sennenhund wär der letzte Hund den ich mir jemals anschaffen würde! Stur und grob gegenüber anderen "kleineren" Hunden!! Meistens sehr, sehr ungezogen und schier ungehorsam... Hab ich bei meiner Stiefmutter bis zum Ultimo erlebt. Der Köter durfte alles!! Mag die nicht! :(((((
😞💔💪👣🐾
YOUR BEAUTIFUL SAM JUST WENT TO SPEND HIS ENTERNAL LIFE WITH HIS TRUE MASTER, OUR GOD FATHER ALMIGHTY. HE IS THE HAPPIEST HE HAS EVER BEEN . WHEN THERE IS PURE LOVE OF GODS HUMANS AND CREATURES, THERE'S NO SEPARATION. FOR HE AWAITS FOR U IN HEAVEN WHILE YOU ARE STILL ON EARTH. FOR OUR LORD SAVIOR AND MASTER JESUS CHRIST DOES FEEL THE UNDESCRIBABLE PAIN , CRUSHING OUR HEARTS, SOULS AND SPIRITS . I NEVER EVER KNEW THAT MY BODY COULD HOLD SO MUCH PAIN AND IT HAS NOT REALLY GONE AWAY. FOR OUR MOST LOVING GOD FATHER ALMIGHTY IS SO NEAR THE BROKEN HEARTED AND THOSE WHO ARE CRUSHED IN SPIRIT ✝️✝️✝️🐶🐾🐕🛐🛐🛐
I'M SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS AND I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO LOSE A BEST FRIEND BUT KNOW YOU HAVE THEM LOOKING DOWN AND SENDING YOU LOVE GOD BLESS YOU ALL
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I miss my "Baby Girl 2024", I miss my "Super Duke 2023", I miss my "Super Shep 2012", I miss my "Roscoe 2010", I miss my "Princess 2009", I miss my "Oscar 2005", I miss my "Ralph 2003". I have everyone's ashes, they and Mom and Dad will be put in a Biodegradable Urn and then in the Ocean for eternity.
😢😢😢😢😭
he can look now one
Bernise Mountain Dogs don't live long, unfortunately.
Yo lo sé our Best Friends is soooo sad
HOW OLD IS SAM WHEN HE PASSED AWAY ?
IS ANYONE THOUGHT OF THE DOG FOOD ?....
He was only seven years old. Lung cancer
I am so sorry for your loss. I understand the pain 100%!! They are so much more than pets, they are family and that makes them loved ones too. There are no words that can be spoken or actions that can be taken to stop the pain, only time. We NEVER get “over it” as some people have said. We will never forget or get over their loss, we only learn to live with the pain and emptiness as time goes on. In time, you will smile when thinking of the fond memories and funny antics. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that death is NOT the end, it's the beginning for both human and animals!! I know this because the bible tells us ALL innocent creatures go to be with our creator God the Father upon death and that includes the animals! Only humans have sinned, all animals are innocent. Human's have a choice but not animals, they live and function on instinct. Just as people receive new bodies the animals do as well. Their bodies will be those that were before the fall of creation. When Adam and Eve ate of the fruit, everything fell from perfection. Birds even began singing in a different key! The breath of life that God breathed into Adam and Eve is the same breath of life that God breathed into the animals, except God breathed into the animals first! Genesis 2:19-25 - God created animals first and Adam named every living creature or beasts of the field! The animals were important to God. When God breathed a spirit into Adam’s body, Adam became nephesh: “living being” or “soul”. The same Hebrew word “nephesh” is used for both animals and people! Genesis 1:30; 7:15, 22 Genesis 2:7 that animals and man have the same breath of life!
The bible even speaks of a child placing his/her hand into the hole of an Asp (deadly snake). The animals also spoke before the fall of creation! Remember the serpent spoke in the Garden of Eden Numbers 22:28 - The donkey spoke through God, the donkey’s tongue was loosened. The donkey could also see the angel, this shows intelligence. Are the animals closer to God than man? Yes, for they are totally innocent and know no sin! They also were a substitute until the birth of Jesus. In the book of Enoch, which is one of the lost books of the bible, Enoch speaks of the animals testifying against man at the great white throne judgment! Those who are born-again and have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior will spend eternity with our loved ones who went first and that includes the animals!
Romans 8:21: That the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. Luke 12:7 - God provides for animals just as for man. He knows when a sparrow falls, none are forgotten before God. Joel 1:20 - The animals cry unto God just as mankind does. Jesus loves the animals! Imagine our love on earth. Jesus has perfect love (agape love), after all he suffered and died an agonizing death on the cross for us. His love for the animals and his creation is perfect and as humans we cannot begin to understand. Proverbs 12:10 - The righteous care for the needs of their animals, but even the kindness of godless men is cruel”. Prayers for all those left behind.
Animals aren’t created in God’s image nor are they equal to humans, however we are their caretakers. Nevertheless, there is biblical evidence animals have non-human souls. Nephesh and psyche are translated “soul” for mankind, but these are also used with animals. God made certain the animals were saved from the flood, and we know from scripture they most certainly are going to be on the refreshed, new earth. When Moses and the Hebrews left Egypt, their animals went too. We need to see that animals and man share something special - we are both living beings. Something one must remember is that Adam and the animals lived happily in the Garden before the fall and will again. Don't forget, when God cursed the 2 people, the animals and whole earth fell under that same curse! That is why some animals now have a “less than loving” nature. Once we’re enjoying the new earth, they will be as they were in the Garden of Eden!
Proverbs 12:12 (NLT) - We are to be stewards of animals. We are caretakers, but they belong to God, not us. For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills. Every bird of the mountains and all animals of the field belong to me Psalm 50:10-11, Psalm 148:10-13, Revelation 4:8-9; 5:13 Animals also praise God. We fail to zero in on scripture that says the “living creatures” that cry out “holy, holy, holy” are animals dwelling in God’s presence. Our Lord Jesus Christ in Revelation 21:5 proclaims “I am making all things new”. Revelation 5:13 - Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praised and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!”
Romans 8 - Creation itself will be free from its bondage, the whole creation has been groaning. Man sinned, animals did not but they were still brought down by human sin. That is a terrible truth of sin; it effects both the innocent and guilty. Romans 8:21 - Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
I am so thankful my mother and I were able to do this study, she died shortly after. Being human, we are selfish and want to keep our loved ones with us forever. As long as I/we are on earth, I will always miss her and wish she had not left us. I can't wish her back here out of heaven, that would be the ultimate act of selfishness!! I would not want her to suffer further because now, she is free of all her pain and is in paradise with Jesus (Luke 23:43). My mother was born-again and so am I, so I will see her again. Most of all we will spend eternity in heaven with Jesus. I look forward to that day.
