About Samuel

Samuel is an adorable 8-month-old cockapoo puppy looking for a new home due to changes in his current family situation. This little boy thrives in an environment with ample space, and while he currently lives in an apartment with other small dogs, it's not the best fit for him. Samuel would cherish a fenced yard to frolic in and would benefit from having a companion dog of similar size to guide him. He weighs 20 pounds, is neutered, and has all his vaccinations up to date. Samuel is friendly with dogs, cats, and kids aged 6 and up. He’s smart and energetic, always eager for brain games, but he can feel overwhelmed in crowded situations. Though not clingy, he enjoys attention and forms bonds with those he trusts. Consistent training is essential for him as he doesn’t like being crated and shouldn’t be left alone for extended periods. He’s currently about 75% housebroken and requires help to finish the process, but treats make training a rewarding adventure for him. Grooming is also vital due to his lovely scruffy coat, so please be sure that fits your budget. If you're ready to embrace the joys of puppyhood and commit to the responsibilities that come with it, reach out to start your journey with Samuel today. Click apply to start the adoption process.
