Sam strikes me as the kind of pony that will unhesitatingly carry his master until he drops dead from fatigue.

Thinking of Frodo on the Emyn Muil, somehow I was reminded of a bloodhound, on the trail, that wouldn't stop until the prey had been treed; only Frodo's trail was the road to Mount Doom. But he wouldn't stop til he got there.

Not that that comes anywhere near doing him justice.
