Last week we said goodbye to our beautiful boy, Samson. 💔
For almost a decade, Samson was our constant companion. If we were feeding pigs, working in the butchery, fixing fences, wandering the paddocks or simply sitting on the veranda, he was there. Fork it Farm grew with Samson by our side, and it's hard to imagine this place without him.
He had the goofiest personality, the gentlest soul and a way of making every day a little brighter. Whether it was his soft kisses, his wonky boxer grin, or the way he insisted on coming along for every adventure, he brought so much joy into our lives.
These last few months were incredibly hard as we watched his body slowly let him down, but his spirit never did. Even when walking became difficult, he still wanted to be with us—checking on the pigs, hopping in the car, or simply lying nearby while we worked.
The farm feels so much quieter now. There are no heavy paws following us around, no hopeful face waiting for a scratch, and no boxer wiggles greeting us at the gate.
Thank you, Samson, for your unwavering loyalty, your endless love and all the laughter you brought into our lives. You were our shadow, our best mate and a cherished part of our family.
Run free, beautiful boy. We'll miss you every single day. ❤️🐾
