Meet Sam

Name: Sam Sex: Female Estimated Age: 3 months old (as of 8/5) Best Guess for Breed: Shepherd Mix Weight: About 10 lbs (as of 8/5) Lives With: Dogs, cats, kids and all people! Housebroken? Yes! Rescued from: Alabama What my foster says: In the house: Sam is doing great with housetraining and hasn’t had an accident in over a week. She’s really fun to have around and makes us laugh all the time- whether it’s a funny look with her big floppy ears, or zooming by with a toy in her mouth. Her favorite thing to do is play with our lab-mix, but she also loves to find a lap to lie on once she’s tired. She’s also been a great WFH buddy. She lies nicely on a dog bed or in her crate while I sit at my desk. She’s super smart and food motivated, so I’d predict she’ll be easy to train in the future. Outside the house: Sam loves exploring the backyard and just sitting in the grass. Also, don’t let her little legs fool you- she’s good on walks and easily handles our mile long loop every morning. She’s also very comfortable in the car, so we’ve been bringing her all over with us. Her favorite thing to do is pick our kids up from camp- her tail wags like crazy when she sees all the kids. Perfect home: Sam is an easygoing girl who would do well in almost any situation. She’ll become your best friend and fit in great with your family. She’s currently living with kids and doing fantastic with them. Sam would be totally fine as an only dog, but if you’re looking for a second dog - she might be the perfect choice. She LOVES our dog. They play all the time, but she also follows her lead on walks and insists on taking naps curled up together. They’re best buddies! The fee to adopt Sam is $475. That covers the cost of all her vaccines, the collar she’s wearing, and her care in her foster home. She’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines. If you think that Sam might be your perfect match, apply today!
