Sammy is a 2-year-old Chihuahua mix who needs a calm, experienced adopter ready to help her feel safe and understood. She can be wary with new people and finds sudden introductions stressful, so she thrives with slow, intentional meet-and-greets. Sammy does best where boundaries are clear, handling is gentle, and routines don’t change abruptly. With those basics met, she starts to unwind—her loyalty and sweetness emerge as she bonds with you over time. Sammy’s confidence is growing, but she’ll need continuous behavioral support and positive reinforcement training to keep making progress. It’s important she’s placed in a home with an adopter who’s patient, consistent, and open to working with her calmly through her insecurities. Sammy forms deep connections once trust is built. She needs ongoing structure, commitment, and a family that’ll work at her pace. Note: She does not get along with cats. Fun fact: Sammy is a Scorpio—independent, sensitive, and devoted.
