Two abandoned puppies discovered near a grave in Washington City Cemetery have brought unexpected joy and solace to a grieving family during the Christmas season. The puppies' resemblance to the deceased father's childhood dog deepened the heartwarming connection.
Two abandoned puppies found near a grave in the Washington City Cemetery have brought comfort to a local family during the holiday season. Steve Terry and his son Kyler discovered a post on Facebook that showed two dogs – one black, one brown – nestled against the headstone of Steve’s late father, Sam Terry. The black puppy bore a striking resemblance to Sam’s childhood dog, Duke, a black lab with a white patch on its chest.
Sam Terry, who grew up on a farm in Idaho, shared a deep bond with his dogs who accompanied him for daily chores.“It feels like a tender mercy to say ‘Hey, look what’s happening here.’ I think there’s a deeper meaning,” said Steve. The puppies, believed to be between 8 and 10 months old and possible lab-shepherd mixes, were taken to the Washington City Animal Shelter, 95 E. Industrial Drive. This Christmas, the Terry family is finding solace in the unexpected visit from the puppies, viewing it as a reminder of a father’s love. “There’s a real connection between dogs and people. They care for us, and I think these dogs showed us that love in a really unique way,” Steve noted. “Sam was a very loving person, with people and with his dogs. I think there’s a connection there and I think they’re watching over us every day,” added Judy Terry, Steve’s mother
