My story

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

Sam is a very friendly miniature poodle looking for a home. His former family moved here all the way from Venezuela and brought Sam with them into the United States! Once they got here for a myriad of reasons they decided they didn't want him any longer and surrendered him to the shelter. Upon arrival to the shelter, Sam was found to be very under weight and nails over grown. His undercarriage is also all stained yellow from the former owners keeping a diaper on him 24/7. He is now in a foster home where he gets along great with the other small dogs and cats that are there. He's also eating really well and slowly gaining back needed weight. His nails have been properly trimmed too! Sam is NOT fully house broken so his future adopter will need to be willing to work with him on that. If interested, please fill out the online application at the below link: https://forms.gle/dRoSRegYwd5jxbNU8 Prospective adopters must have a verifiable positive veterinary history. A fenced in back yard is preferred.April 23, 2024, 9:08 am
