About Sam

Sam and his sister, Pepper, were found as strays and have been given a warm place to stay. However, their current family needs to rehome them, and Sam is eager to find a forever home. This friendly, active boy gets along well with other dogs but does not do well with cats or livestock, so a pet-free home is essential. Sam is crate-trained, walks nicely on a leash, and loves car rides, making him an ideal companion for those who enjoy adventures. He may need some guidance adjusting to indoor life and potty training since he hasn't spent much time in a house. With some patience, he will likely settle into a routine quickly. His energy means he needs a secure yard and supervision outside, as he tends to jump fences. Sam is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and is pending a microchip and heartworm test. If you're ready to provide a loyal companion with a fresh start, Sam could be the perfect fit for your family. Your new best friend is just one click away.
