About Sammy

Sammy is a gentle soul looking for a loving forever home. Formerly an owner surrender in Yuma, he found himself in rescue after his elderly owner could no longer provide for him. At 9 years old, Sammy is house trained with zero accidents reported by his foster mom. He has a knack for getting along with other dogs and enjoys spending time with them. While he's not tested with cats, his demeanor suggests he could adapt well. Leash walks can be a bit of a challenge as he tends to pull, but his enthusiasm for car rides makes up for it. Sammy is neutered, vaccinated, and ready to find a family that will cherish him for his golden years. This sweet boy is all set to become a cherished companion in a loving home.
