My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Sampson, a delightful, smiley 7-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix who is young at heart and ready to find his perfect forever home!

Despite his age, Sampson has a spirited personality and a zest for life that is truly infectious. While he may struggle with overarousal and anxiety during the first few days in a new environment, he quickly settles down and adapts well. One of Sampson's favorite ways to relax and find comfort is through belly rubs. This gentle giant absolutely adores the affectionate touch of a caring hand and will gladly soak up all the love and attention you can give. His sweet disposition shines through, and he is known for his loving nature and big heart. Sampson is a pretty good walker and doesn't get bothered by too much. Going for strolls with him will not only provide him with physical exercise but also help him feel more comfortable and confident in his surroundings.

With a bit of guidance and positive reinforcement, Sampson will surely become an excellent walking companion, enjoying the sights and sounds of the great outdoors. Currently weighing 110 pounds, Sampson could benefit from a weight management plan to ensure he stays in good health. A balanced diet and regular exercise, including those enjoyable walks, will help him maintain a healthy weight and overall well-being. If you're looking for a loyal and affectionate companion who may need a little extra time to adjust to his new home, Sampson is the perfect match for you. His loving nature and youthful spirit make him a joy to be around, and his gentle demeanor will win your heart over in no time. Open your home to this amazing senior dog, and you'll be rewarded with a lifetime of love, cuddles, and belly rubs. Come meet Sampson today and discover the joy he can bring to your life!
