My story

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

Samson is a six year old fawn mastiff turned into rescue becasue of his separation anxiety.
Sampson is a lovely and large fawn mastiff- at 205 pounds and tall- who needs a new home where his owners are around to spend time with him. He has exhibited some separation anxiety and needs an owner willing to work with him on this. He did receive good vet care from his previous owner and all vet records show he's been kept current on vaccinations and hw preventative since puppyhood.

He appears to do well with children and likes other dogs- but he has done some dominance posturing with other large male dogs. He lives with a young male in his foster home and does well with him. We have no idea how he would do with cats.

Sampson can not be crate confined due to separation anxiety. He needs an owner that is HOME most of the time - and who can leave him loose in the house with another dog as his buddy when they leave the house.

His new owner needs to be someone who is willing to take him to a vet/behaviorist and work with his separation anxiety issues using behavior modification and medication if necessary.

Samson is being fostered in Georgia and please contact barknmadd@comcast.net for further information.
