Here's what the humans have to say about me:
SAMMY***CONTACT KAT katkylabrescue@gmail.com SAMMY****"THE PERFECT COMPANION--HAPPY--PLAYFUL--LOVING AND SOOOOO ADORABLE!!" SAMMY IS THE CUTEST 2 YR. OLD,SCRUFFY, ADORABLE LITTLE FELLOW!!! DON'T PLAN ON KEEPING YOUR HEART WHEN YOU MEET SAMMY BECAUSE WITHIN MINUTES YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH THIS PRECIOUS "SCRUFFY" LITTLE FELLOW--WE DID!!! THE FIRST THING YOU WILL NOTICE IS WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GUY HE IS, HIS COAT ONE OF HIS MOST OUTSTANDING FEATURES IT’S A PALE WARM FAWN ACCENTED WITH BLACK. YOU WILL WANT TO PAT THIS LITTLE "SNUGGLE BUG" ALL DAY WHICH AS MUCH AS HE LOVES ATTENTION AND AFFECTION IS JUST FINE WITH HIM. YOU WILL BE RE-PAID WITH AS MANY WARM KISSES AS YOU WILL ALLOW THIS LITTLE LOVER TO GIVE YOU. SAMMY ALSO HAS SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES WE HAVE SEEN THEY ARE HUGE, A RICH, WARM CHESTNUT COLOR POSSESSING A LOOK THAT SEEMS TO BE SAYING "LOVE ME & LET'S GO PLAY"!! ALTHOUGH SAMMY MAY NOT BE THE BIGGEST OF PUPS THIS "LITTLE" FELLOW'S HEART AND SPIRIT ARE HUGE!!! SAMMY GIVES TRUE MEANING TO THE WORD "COMPANION", HE IS AN AFFECTIONATE, DEVOTED EXTREMELY LOVING FUN FUN LITTLE FELLOW. HE HAS A SWEET, PLAYFUL HAPPY PERSONALITY A COMPLETE JOY TO BE AROUND. SAMMY'S TRUE HAPPINESS IS BEING WITH THOSE HE LOVES. SAMMY IS ALSO "MR. PERSONALITY" JUST SAY A KIND WORD TO THIS LITTLE FELLOW OR OFFER HIM A TREAT AND THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW THIS LITTLE "SCRUFF" OF A PUP IS ALL SNUGGLED AS CLOSE TO YOU AS HE CAN GET, TAIL WAGGING, EYES SPARKLING, SAMMY IS A PUP YOU COULD TAKE ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD MAKE YOU PROUD, BETTER ALLOW A LITTLE EXTRA TIME WHEN FOLKS SEE SAMMY THIS PUP IS BEYOND ADORABLE. SAMMY ALSO ADORES THE COMPANY OF OTHER DOGS, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SIZE HIS ONLY REQUEST IS THAT THEY WILL PLAY WITH HIM AND SAMMY LOVES TO PLAY!!(HE'S EVEN FINE WITH CATS)SAMMY TRULY IS THE ULTIMATE COMPANION, WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR JUST MAKE THIS LITTLE FELLOW A PART OF IT. SAMMY WOULD ADORE AN EARLY MORNING WALK TO THE DOGGIE PARK, JUST A CHANCE FOR HIM TO MEET A NEW PLAY BUDDY, EVEN THOUGH SAMMY ISN'T THE BIGGEST PUP THIS LITTLE FELLOW CAN KEEP UP WITH YOU AND WE BET HE WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP. A CAR RIDE TO RUN ERRANDS AROUND TOWN, JUST OPEN THE CAR DOOR SCOOP UP THIS LITTLE SCRUFF OF A PUP AND GO. SAMMY WILL FIND HIS SEAT, TURN THAT ADORABLE HEAD TO ONE SIDE AND GIVE YOU HIS "COME ON LET'S GO HAVE SOME FUN" LOOK. SAMMY DOESN'T ALWAYS KNOW WHERE HE'S GOING AND IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER TO HIM, HIS TRUE HAPPINESS IS JUST BEING WITH YOU. NOW THAT THE WEATHER IS GETTING WARMER IF YOUR WEEKEND CALLED FOR A TRIP TO THE BEACH BOY IS SAMMY READY HE WOULD SPEND THE DAY CHASING HIS BALL DOWN THE SHORELINE ALSO GREETING EVERYONE HE MEETS ASKING FOR A PAT, PUPS JUST DON'T COME ANY SWEETER OR HAPPIER THEN SAMMY. THERE IS ANOTHER PART TO THIS PUP'S PACKAGE AND IT IS APPARENT AFTER SPENDING JUST A SHORT TIME WITH SAMMY THIS PUP IS SOOOO SMART!!! HE IS A VERY ALERT LITTLE FELLOW ALWAYS AWEAR OF HIS SURROUNDINGS, SHOW SAMMY SOMETHING NEW AND HE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES. HE IS A PUP THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, LEARNS EXTREMELY FAST BUT MOST IMPORTANT DELIGHTS IN PLEASING THE SKY'S THE LIMIT WITH THIS EXCEPTIONAL LITTLE GUY. AT DAY'S END WHEN YOU AND SAMMY HAVE SPENT THE DAY RUNNING ERRANDS, TAKING LONG WALKS, PLAYED WITH HIS FAVORITE TOY, WHEN SAMMY COMES INSIDE HIS HOME HE CONTINUES TO SHINE. HE WILL CURL UP IN A BALL AS CLOSE TO YOU AS HE CAN GET AND NAP, CONTENT JUST BEING WITH HIS FAMILY HE IS A JOY TO BE AROUND. WHEN IT'S TIME FOR BED HE WILL SNUGGLE IN HIS SOFT, FLUFFY BED JUST AS LONG AS IT'S AS CLOSE TO YOUR BED AS HE CAN GET BUT WE BET IF YOU WANTED A CUDDLE SOFT SLEEPING BUDDY ONE WHO DOESN'T TAKE UP ANY ROOM AT ALL SAMMY WOULD OBLIGE. SAMMY ONLY HAS ONE WISH AND THOSE HUGE "LOVE ME" EYES TOLD US THIS THE FIRST TIME WE SAW HIM, HE WANTS "TO BELONG." HE WANTS TO BE A PART OF A FAMILY WHO WILL SEE WHAT A TREASURE HE IS AND LOVE HIM. WE FEEL THAT HE WOULD BE A GREAT COMPANION FOR A COUPLE, SINGLE GUY OR GIRL, OR A FAMILY WITH CHILDREN WHO WOULD LOVE TO HAVE SAMMY AS THEIR "BEST FRIEND", AN OWNER WHO WOULD SPEND PLAYING WITH AND LOVING SAMMY. SAMMY IS A DEVOTED LITTLE FELLOW, ONE WHO IS THERE FOR YOU 100%. HE IS A PUP WHO IS LOVING, DEEPLY TRUSTING AND LOVES WITH EVERY FIBER OF HIS BEING. HE ONLY ASK FOR A SOFT PLACE TO LAY HIS HEAD AND WHEN HE CURLS UP AT NIGHT HE JUST WANTS TO HEAR "SAMMY WE LOVE YOU" SPOKEN TO HIM AND HE WILL BLINK THOSE BIG BEAUTIFUL EYES, WAG HIS TAIL AND WE KNOW THIS IS HIS WAY OF SAYING "I LOVE YOU TOO" THIS LITTLE FELLOW WITH THE "BIG" HEART AND SPIRIT IS A DREAM!!!!
