Sammy

My story

Sammy is a giant ball of love searching for his forever family. He is an 8-month-old Labrador mix puppy who weighs 77 pounds of sweetness. Don’t let his large size fool you—Sammy is a gentle dog and truly as good as it gets! He wants nothing more than to be with his loved ones. He will sit on your feet while you're at the computer or cuddle with you on the couch if allowed. At night, he happily sleeps on the floor of your bedroom. Sammy is an excellent listener and knows commands such as "come," "sit," and "leave it." He enjoys his training sessions with the Woofs app. When it comes to treats, he is very gentle, whether he's receiving training treats or bully sticks, and he prefers gentle playtime with his toys over rough games like tug-of-war. Sammy is potty-trained and can use a doggy door. He rarely barks, only occasionally when he hears a plane overhead. He is great on a leash, does not pull, and walks at a good pace. Sammy has moderate energy due to having hip surgery at 4.5 months, but he is recovering well. He enjoys 2-3 short walks each day and is gradually working up to longer ones, as advised by the vet. When meeting both small and large dogs on leash during neighborhood walks, Sammy has had only positive interactions. He whimpers in excitement when he encounters other dogs because he wants to play! One of his favorite activities is playing with a soccer ball. He would thrive as a primarily indoor dog with access to a yard where he can explore, potty, and play. Sammy waits patiently for his food and eats slowly; he is definitely motivated by toys! If he finds something he shouldn't have, he gives it up easily and is easily redirected. With his adorable Staffie-like face and turned-up nose, Sammy resembles a cute seal. He is the sweetest and gentlest boy who thinks he’s a lap dog. He truly has a heart of gold and is an affectionate love bug. Sammy adores every person he meets—neighbors, workers, gardeners, and anyone who gives him positive attention.
