Story
Sampson is an awesome dog! He is 4 years old and he has been a great companion for our family. Unfortunately, as our kids have gotten older, our family has become extremely busy and Sampson is left to himself most days. We don't have other outside dogs and we hate that he is likely lonely most of the time. As much as we would like to keep him, his quality of life is more important to us. He loves kids and other dogs. He's very smart and responds well to some commands, especially when you have treats. He loves to play fetch but struggles with letting go of the toy after he brings it back. He loves to swim and chase off deer and squirrels. Sampson is not a fan of cats, so if you have cats, he is not the dog for you. We would prefer that his new home have a large space to run and play. Sampson mainly lives outdoors but also enjoys visiting indoors. He is very friendly to everyone he meets. If you are interested, we would love to schedule a meet and greet.
