AfricanDawns Lord Samuel of Lapsang 

Pet name: Sam

Breeder: Mr Tony Johnson

KC/BVA: Eyes: Clear

Sam is a handsome, Gold T.T. who lives in Lancashire (now retired from show).
He is a very gentle, loving dog who has done well at show and is an established stud.
Sam is a family dog and loves children. 

Sam has a  protective nature. A recent act of  his kindness was when on the park he spotted a dog taunting a young kitten. Sam chased the dog away and stood over the shaking kitten to protect it whilst warding the other dog off. When the dog had gone, Sam gave the kitten a quick once other, a big lick, and then handed the rest of the rescue over to me whilst he went about his play :-)
