My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi, my name is Samson and I am a beautiful Malamute and German Shepherd mix. I can be a little shy of new people and other dogs but with careful slow introductions I do very well. I grew up with my furry brother and love dog friends. I get to go to doggie daycare to play and I currently have a foster sister that I love to hang out with. I am a happy, healthy boy but I do need to take an inexpensive prescription to keep my seizures controlled.

I would like to go to a home that has an understanding of both the Malamute side and the German Shepherd side of my personality. A family that loves me and lets me be with them most of the time and takes me on long walks or hikes would be my idea of doggie heaven.

My natural instinct is to protect the people I love. I am still a young boy and I am pretty strong. I think I am going to need to go to a home that is willing to help me learn that I can just be a dog and have fun. I will need exercise and someone who is willing to continue working with a positive reinforcement, force free trainer. I really want to find someone who will give me time to learn to be carefree and to be loved. I know that giving me the time and training will be worth it for the right person who adopts me. Due to my protective personality a quiet home without a lot of company would be my best match. Are you the one?
