My story

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

Samson is a big guy,82 lbs of muscle. He’s a low rider and although he looks like he’s gray and white, he’s actually a gray brown Brindle and white.
Samson doesn’t have a mean bone in his body,however, he does have boundless energy and is a very powerful who needs training as he doesn’t know what is and is not appropriate behavior for a dog his size. Jumping on people,mostly.
Samson is a dominant male dog,however,he is dog friendly
The last time he was tested,he was afraid of the cats,but we always cat test several times...
Samson’s would do very well in an adult family,with large dog experience who would either engage a trainee or who were trainers,or very experienced and willing to work with
