Samuel is the kind of dog who quietly works his way into your heart.

This handsome boy has already been through more than he ever should have, but despite it all, he has remained gentle, trusting, and incredibly sweet. After being rescued from the local shelter by Sunnyside Street Dogs, Samuel is now safe in foster care where he’s beginning to learn what comfort and love truly feel like.

Samuel can be a little shy when faced with new people or environments, but that’s simply because he likes to take his time and feel things out. Once he realizes he’s safe, his soft and loving personality begins to shine through. He’s calm, observant, and not the type of dog to create chaos. Instead, he’s the kind of companion who will quietly stay by your side and form a deep bond with his people.

Even while dealing with a leg injury and discomfort, Samuel has remained cooperative and kind, which says so much about the beautiful soul he has. He is currently under veterinary care and getting everything he needs to heal properly.

Samuel doesn’t need perfection. He just needs a patient home, a gentle routine, and someone willing to let him settle in at his own pace. In return, he’s going to give endless loyalty, quiet companionship, and a love that feels truly special.

This sweet boy has his whole life ahead of him. Now he just needs someone willing to give him the chance he deserves. 🐾

*We coordinate with multiple transport services that operate weekly to Eastern states and bi-weekly or monthly to Western states from Texas to your state or a neighboring state. These are ground transports using third party vehicles (vans/buses) converted for dog transport. Each adopter has the ability to track the van using the app Life360, and receives updates from transport along the way. Facebook chats are another resource to stay informed on tracking dogs on transport. Please be able to use one of these available services if you wish to follow your adopted dog on transport.

*Our adoption fees are based on the vetting we put into each dog. Fees for puppies (under 12 months) are higher because they require more vetting than dogs over 1 year.

*Listed breed and age are based on a best guess estimation by rescue and veterinary staff; DNA tests are not included in adoption.

*Our adopters are eligible to receive 50% off training with Curbed Behaviors Dog Training for programs booked within 30 days of adoption, and 25% off programs booked within 60-90 days of adoption.

*All of our adopters are invited to join our “Alum Pupdates” Facebook group, to share their story and their adorable pup with fellow Sunnyside Street Dogs adopters!

The American Staffordshire Terrier, also known as the Amstaff, is a medium sized, muscular breed known for its loyalty and courage. Developed in the United States, they are intelligent and affectionate dogs, making them great family companions. With a distinctive short coat and strong build, American Staffordshire Terriers are often misunderstood due to their past as fighting dogs, but they are actually loving and playful pets when raised in a nurturing environment. They thrive on human interaction and are eager to please their owners.
