Samantha wasn't rescued from a rescue shelter, she was rescued along with her sister, from the side of a highway. My neighbor brought them home with her and asked if we knew anyone who was looking to adopt a puppy. The second I saw Samantha (then known as "the light one"), I knew I had to have her. Her sister was adorable and everything, but there was something in Samantha's eyes that just connected with me. And she's been my baby girl ever since... :approve:
