Story
Sami is an amazing dog with a big personality, but she really needs to be the only dog in the home. We currently have two other dogs, and Sami tends to be a bit of a bully with them. She came into our lives during Covid and absolutely loves being around people. Sami bonds closely with one person in particular and will be your most loyal companion. While she doesn’t do well being left alone all day, she is crate trained and can stay comfortably in her crate when you’re out. (Her crate is included) Sami is happy to do her own thing as long as she’s in the same room with you. Whether you’re working, relaxing, or doing chores, she just wants to feel like part of the action. Despite her curly "Poodle" coat she’s not hypoallergenic, so she may not be the best fit for someone with allergies. One thing to keep in mind: Sami is a pro counter-surfer, so you’ll need to keep food and other tempting items out of reach!

These pups are in Santa Cruz, California too!
