My personality

My story

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

If you are looking for a show stoppingly handsome, wonderfully friendly, sweet companion, then Sammy may be your soulmate! Sammy came into the pound when his owner could no longer care for him. He lived in an apartment with him and the owner was struggling with mobility issues and could no longer walk well. He was devastated, as was Sammy, but he simply couldn’t care for him any longer. Sammy’s heart was broken to say goodbye to his owner, and then he became so scared when he entered the pound. Even though his heart was shattered and he was scared and confused, this guy was reliably so loving and kind to everyone he met. He gained many advocates during his stay at the pound and fortunately a fabulous foster home opened up with room to take this darling boy in until he finds a home to call his very own.
Sammy is 2 years old and weighing about 45-50 lbs. According to his owner, which the vet agrees with, he is a gorgeous blend of smoothie collie, sight/greyhound, and lab. He is leggy and lean, and absolutely adorable! He has since had all of his medical work done including vaccines, heartworm testing, microchipping, deworming, preventative, and he’s neutered. He’s healthy, wonderful, and ready to begin his next chapter!
Sammy is truly just such a good dog. He is exceptionally intelligent and so devoted and loving. He is active and he absolutely looooves to run around in his yard and play with other pups! He enjoys being outside in nature and taking in the peace of a cool breeze and birdwatching in the warmer months, and will enjoy a parks in the winter months! He absolutely loves to go for walks and hikes and he does great on a leash! For as much as he loves his time in the great outdoors, this boys favorite is a snuggle under the blankets all warm and cozy with his favorite people. He is always ready for a movie night and enjoys sleeping close to his humans. He’s had excellent manners in the house and much prefers to be free than to be in a crate. He has done well with cats though will try to play, and he has been phenomenal with other dogs. Whether they large, small, male, female, you name it he does awesome in doggy play groups and is so happy to have the companionship of pups! He has a very good natured disposition and is social and loving with everyone he meets. He’ll do fantastic in a home with a nice yard to play in (he would definitely love a doggy sibling!), and with parents who will love to have a balanced life of sofa snuggles, car rides, and walks/hikes. He has a tender, loving heart and such soulful eyes. When you meet him you can tell he truly wants to be the best boy he can be, and that his greatest joy is giving and receiving love.
