About Sammy
Meet Sammy - the scruffy sweetheart with a gentle soul.
Sammy is a dog-social, food-motivated boy who's searching for a calm, committed home where he can feel safe and secure. He absolutely adores other dogs and would thrive with a confident canine companion to help show him the ropes.
Though timid with new people-especially men-Sammy forms deep, loyal bonds with women once he feels safe. He's a sensitive soul who startles easily with loud noises and unfamiliar situations, but with slow, gentle handling, he shows he can learn to trust.
Sammy will need very secure fencing, as well as a home with the time, patience, and skill to help him build confidence, trust, and reliable recall. He'll benefit from consistent, positive reinforcement training and a quiet environment where he can truly flourish.
Yes, Sammy is a bit of a project dog-but for the right person, he will be a deeply loyal, loving companion with so much heart to give.
