Story
Samuel, affectionately known as Sammy, is a 5.5-month-old Black Lab mix with a stunning coat—a soft, beautiful blend of black and brown hues. His unique "worry wrinkles" on his head when he rests give him an endearing expression that’s impossible to resist.
Sammy’s early days were spent in challenging conditions, confined to a small, muddy space with his siblings in Tennessee. Since arriving in Illinois, he’s blossomed in his foster home, embracing the safety and warmth of a loving environment.
This bright and eager pup is already housebroken, walks wonderfully on a leash with a gentle leader, and sleeps through the night like a champ—no fuss, no noise. Sammy knows “sit” and “down” and is eager to learn even more, making training a fun and rewarding experience. He’s a polite houseguest, barking only to alert and never just for attention. Sammy gets along well with other dogs, making him a great companion for families with furry friends.
Sammy is equally at ease with men, women, and children, having shown his gentle and friendly nature at adoption events. His soft fur, playful spirit, and loving personality make him the perfect companion for a family ready to continue his journey of learning and growth. Could Sammy be the missing piece to your home?
