Sammy is a medium-sized guy weighing 38 lbs, born around April 22, 2024. He may initially be cautious around new people and settings, but with a bit of patience and reassurance, he can be a sweet buddy for adventures and cozy cuddles.

Since being rescued from a local shelter by Sunnyside Street Dogs, he has blossomed, learning what love and comfort feel like. Although he can be a bit shy when faced with new experiences, once he feels secure, his gentle and loving personality shines.
