Meet Sammie Boy 🌲
Sammie Boy is a handsome, high-spirited adventurer who’s always ready to hit the trail, hop in the car, or explore the great outdoors right beside you. If you love hiking, walking, or simply being active, Sammie has the kind of enthusiasm that inspires you to get outside and soak up life (rain or shine).
When Sammie first enters a new home, he can be very excited, energetic, and a bit anxious as he adjusts to unfamiliar surroundings. But with calm guidance, a consistent routine, structure, and patience, he settles in beautifully. Within a few weeks, he begins to relax, understand the household rhythm, and show what an easy, sweet, and incredibly loyal companion he truly is. He’s a quick study and thrives when he knows what to expect.
Sammie is treat-motivated, smart, and eager to please. He’s house trained and crate trained, and for a dog who never previously lived indoors, he’s adapting wonderfully to the comfort of home life. He loves being outdoors, but he’s also learning just how lovely it is to snuggle, nap, and follow his people from room to room. He gets excited about all the best things in life: outside time, walks, food, toys, and quality time with his humans.
He knows sit, paw, and lie down, and he’s currently working on stay, wait, and polite greetings without jumping. With ongoing practice and consistency, he’s well on his way to becoming a beautifully mannered — and deeply devoted — companion.
Compatibility Notes
Sammie is full of energy and enthusiasm, and the right home will appreciate and embrace that.
Cats: Not recommended. While he may show interest, his excitement can overwhelm cats.
Dogs: Sammie is good with other dogs, but he is best matched with one who shares his size, energy level, and playful style.
Ideal Home
Sammie Boy would thrive with an active adopter who enjoys outdoor adventures and has a secure fenced yard. He’d be happy as an only dog or with a well-matched canine companion who can keep up with his enthusiasm. His ideal home is one that values his joyful spirit and continues his training with patience, consistency, and plenty of treats.
