My story

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

Hello there, I’m Sammy — a handsome black and tan Chow/Retriever mix, just about a year old and full of quiet charm. I even have adorable black spots on my tongue, which I hear make me quite the conversation starter. 😌🐾

I’m a very polite young gentleman who already knows how to sit, walk beautifully on a leash, and keep a tidy home — I’m fully housebroken and crate trained. I’m gentle with older kids and the elderly, and I always try to make people feel comfortable around me.

When it comes to other dogs, I can be a bit selective. I have an alpha personality, so if there is another dog in the household, it would preferably be a submissive female. I was picked on before I arrived at the shelter, so I appreciate slow, proper introductions to make sure I feel safe. I haven’t met any young children or cats yet, so that’s still a mystery. 🐕‍🦺✨

One of my favorite things in the world is going for a car ride — windows down, ears flapping, the whole experience. And if you like taking photos, well… I do consider myself rather photogenic. 📸💁‍♂️

If you’re looking for a loyal, well-mannered companion with a soft heart and soulful eyes, I’d be honored to meet you.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

When you decide to adopt a pet, we charge a fee to cover some of our costs. (Except for 2 employees, all others are volunteers!) If there is any problem with your adopted pet, call us to work out a solution. Occasionally, we do take adopted pets back, but very seldom. This is why visiting our shelter is so important! We are willing to work with you! And we appreciate referrals!
