Dumped at a Houston park alongside his sister, Sampson could have every reason not to trust people—but instead, he's chosen to love them. He's ready to leave his past in the rearview mirror and start the life he's always deserved—with a family who will love him forever. Introducing Sampson This handsome chocolate Lab mix is just 10–11 months old and weighs about 45 lbs. He's the kind of dog who wins people over immediately with his sweet nature, gentle personality, and happy-go-lucky attitude. Sampson is affectionate, friendly, and always eager to spend time with his people. Whether he's following you around the house, soaking up attention, or leaning in for pets, he's happiest when he's part of the action. For such a young dog, Sampson has wonderful manners and an easygoing temperament. He enjoys playing, exploring, and being outside, but he also knows how to settle down and relax. Sampson is the kind of dog who will be your adventure buddy when you want to get out and do something, then happily curl up beside you when the day is done. He's loyal, loving, and eager to be part of a family of his own. Sampson deserves a home where he'll never be left behind again. altered, microchipped & vaccinated pick up 6/11 apply today !! *Please note: We're an all-volunteer organization, and incomplete applications cannot be processed.* If you're interested in adopting a GBP rescue PAL, please submit an application through the link below.
