About Sammy

Sammy is an adorable pup with a confident personality. At just 9 weeks old and weighing 5 lbs, he’s a mix of Dachshund and possibly Toy Poodle. His soft and fluffy coat adds to his charm. Sammy plays comfortably with bigger dogs and has interacted well with young children, but his small size means he would thrive best in a home with older kids or a retired couple. This little guy is eager to become a loving companion and is sure to flourish in a caring environment. Sammy is still waiting to be neutered, and upon adoption, a deposit will be held until his vet appointments are complete. If you’re interested in bringing Sammy into your home, please fill out an application on the rescue’s website. Let’s give this sweet boy the home he deserves!
