About Sam

Meet Sam, a delightful 2-month-old male Schnoodle with a playful spirit and a fluffy, adorable face. Weighing in at just 5.5 pounds, he may be small, but his personality shines brightly. Sam enjoys frolicking with his foster brothers and is always up for some playful exploration. When it's time to wind down, he knows how to find a cozy spot to rest. As a puppy, Sam needs a dedicated family to shower him with love and help him learn the basics. He is currently practicing potty training and getting accustomed to crate training at night. Since he's used to snuggling up with his foster siblings, transitioning to a new home may take some time. However, his affectionate demeanor makes him a promising addition to any family. Sam is microchipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. His new family will need to complete a basic obedience course to help him develop good habits. He gets along with cats, dogs, and children, making him an ideal companion for various households. If you're interested in adding this charming little guy to your family, please submit an application through ARF-IL’s website.
