Samantha and Scout - BFF

I vascillated about putting this post on the blog, but I decided that it was too cute not to include. Our Labrador Retriever, Scout is quite possibly the friendliest dog in the world and since Samantha arrived in our family, she seems convinced that Sam is a new friend that was specially picked for her.

While we have been VERY dilligent about watching Scout's interactions with Sam (she has a tendency to get slightly "overexcited"), she has never, ever come close to hurting Sam. We do realize that with dogs and babies, you can never be TOO careful, so know that Allen was on IMMEDIATE standby when I took the following video.

I love how Scout is so intrigued by Sam and that she seems totally okay with a ginormous black dog snout in her face.

The video doesn't show it, but Peter was perched on the couch for the entire duration of this episode. Whereas Scout seems to LOVE Samantha, Peter is pretty indifferent. He's always been our tempermental child! :)
