My story

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

Meet Sam AKA Sam I Am! This senior sweetheart came to the Shelter from a partnering organization after he was surrendered due to his family moving. He was in his previous home for his entire life. He lived with a family including children, French bulldogs and dog-savvy cats. Sam was described as house trained in his previous home. Sam is a mellow guy who enjoys hanging out and having a couple short sniffaris a couple times a day. In his previous home, he was free roaming when left alone and also would go in and out of the doggy door. Sam enjoyed going for walks in his previous home. He also knows “sit” and “down”. Although he is an older dog, he is an example that old dogs can in fact learn new tricks. An adopter that will commit to positive reinforcement training to continue bonding with Sam will be great. Sam has been hanging out at client services and has been fairly easy going. If you are looking for a work from home companion to be your steady sidekick – come meet Sam today!
