🐾 Hi there, I’m Double Whammy Sammy! 🐾 I’m a handsome, well-mannered Boxer / Mountain Cur mix, about 7 months old, and I proudly specialize in being a world-class love bug. 💕 I may still be young, but I’ve already lived quite the story—and I’m ready for my happily ever after. I had a rough start in life. For my first three months, I lived in a small cage and didn’t get to experience much of the world. After that, I was surrendered to a shelter and then sent to a foster home, where I finally learned about kind humans, fun toys, and how amazing soft beds can be. 🛏️✨ A few months later, I was adopted by a loving family who truly cared for me, but sadly allergies and very young, unsteady grandchildren meant they couldn’t keep me—so here I am, still full of love and hope.
I absolutely adore people of all ages and get along great with other dogs and even cats! 🐶🐱 I do get excited and like to jump up to say hello (I just love everyone!), so I’d do best in a home without balance concerns, such as unsteady toddlers or elderly folks—at least until I finish polishing up my manners. The good news? I’m smart, eager to please, and highly treat-motivated, so training comes easily to me. 🧠🍪 I’m an energetic boy and thrive with an active lifestyle and a yard where I can run, explore, and burn off my zoomies. My favorite things include outdoor adventures, tug-of-war, splashing in puddles, snuggling up with my people, and—fair warning—I will happily help you dig in the garden. 🌧️🌱 I do have a high prey drive, so I’ll chase chickens, rabbits, and squirrels if given the chance.
I walk well on a leash, travel like a pro, and I’m fully house-trained and crate-trained. Inside the house, I love settling into a comfy bed in an open crate and watching the world go by through the window. 🪟 I’m usually quiet, but I will alert you when someone arrives, which makes me a pretty great little guard dog, too. I already know sit and stay, and I’m working on come, fetch, boundary training, and even “paws” so I can wipe my feet when I come inside. I love both soft and hard chew toys, and honestly—if you’ve got treats, you’ve got my heart. ❤️ If you think I might be the energetic, affectionate companion you’ve been looking for, I’d love to meet you. You can call the shelter at 479-394-5682 to learn more about me. I can’t wait to find my forever family! 🐾 **************** All animals at HSO are current on their vaccinations and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. If not already spayed/neutered, there may be a short delay between when you select this pet and when they are ready to go home.
Breed and age are determined based on observable physical traits. Actual lineage and birth date are rarely known.
Adoption Fees: -$60 for cats -$60 for dogs over 6 years -$80 for dogs 6 months old to 6 years -$100 for puppies up to 6 months
Come visit our pets Tuesday-Saturday, 10am-2pm.
