Story
Meet Samson! This 1 year old, ~50lb brindle Boxer mix is a happy spirit with a playful personality who is ready to find his forever home!
Samson is joyful, friendly, loves people, and has an incredible zest for life. He approaches each day with enthusiasm and believes every day should include a little fun. He loves sprinting around the yard, showing off his impressive jumping skills, tossing toys around, and spending time with his favorite people. He’s the kind of dog who can make you laugh just by being himself.
After a good play session, Samson is happy to chill in the grass outside. If inside, he will settle in his crate or on the couch with a toy, bone, or chew. He loves being with his people and is slowly becoming an expert couch companion - he has yet to master personal space!
Samson is crate trained, a great eater, and mostly potty trained. He may have an occasional accident if he isn't taken outside regularly, but he's doing very well with his house manners. A fenced yard would be his dream, giving him plenty of room to run, explore, play fetch, and enjoy his zoomie sessions.
Samson loves other dogs, although his exuberant play style can sometimes be a little much for dogs who prefer a quieter approach. We think he could happily live as the only dog or with canine companions who enjoy an energetic playmate. Perhaps you have a dogs in your neighborhood. Samson would love to be the only dog in the home yet have play dates with neighbor dogs. Note he has not been living with cats, and we believe a cat-free home would be best.
Kids 5 and up would likely be a wonderful match for Samson. He has met several children and has been fantastic with them. He loves giving kisses, making kids giggle, and soaking up attention. A home where he can run around the yard and play fetch with a small human of his own would be pretty close to his idea of heaven.
For disclosure purposes, we want to be transparent that Samson had a leg injury when he was a puppy. The injury healed, but his one back leg is slightly shorter than the other legs. Multiple veterinarians have evaluated him and recommend leaving the leg as-is because he uses it well and shows no signs of pain. It doesn't stop this energetic boy from running, playing, jumping, or enjoying life! He does not have any activity restrictions or leg-related medications.
If you're looking for a loving, spirited, goofy companion who will keep life active and full of laughter, Samson is ready to meet you! He can go home today to an approved adopter. He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and negative for heartworm and Lyme. Apply to adopt Samson at pawsacrosspittsburgh.com/adopt KL 16182
