Hi Everyone!

Sammy is a very handsome male German Shepherd. He has kind eyes, a big smile, and huge paws. Sammy has a beautiful jet-black coat and a playful demeanor. He has all the makings of a great dog and has shown a willingness to listen to his handler and train/learn. He already walks calmly on a leash, which is very unique for dogs that are right from the shelter. Over his short time with us, Sammy has settled nicely into the pack at the Rescue and is loved by all the volunteers and staff.  

Sammy was rescued from the shelter a day before he was to be euthanized, and he is one of those dogs who seems to know it and is determined to make the most of his new chance at life.

Like all dogs, Sammy will benefit from consistent training. At the Rescue, we have noticed that due to his desire to play and learn, Sammy gets mouthy, as is common with the breed. However, it’s already showing improvement and with continued training Sammy will be a great play, hiking, training and hangout partner. Sammy is personable and outgoing with men, women and other dogs. He gets really excited when the volunteers at the Rescue come to take him on walks and is disappointed when it’s over. He is eager to learn and even more eager to please. Come meet him and help him grow into the great dog that he is destined to be. You’ll have a friend and activity partner for life with Sammy in your home.

This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. Prior to placement, all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are usually microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis. Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
