11-year-old Sammy was entrusted to our care after his loving mom, who is battling cancer, could no longer care for him. A very sweet and gentle boy, Sammy weighs 70 lbs.
After becoming a Frosted Face in August, Sammy went on a two-week Frosted Fling, so we could learn more about him in a home environment, and because he was such a good houseguest, it turned into a 3-month Foster home!
Sammy's Foster Mom shares:
"Sammy is very friendly and likes everyone he meets, kids included. He loves being petted. We take Sammy on long walks around the neighborhood and on a hike on the weekends. He has good energy for an 11-year-old and can do 2-3 mile hikes. We've also taken him on to the beach, and he did great!
Sammy is very much a shadow and follows me everywhere. He doesn't exhibit any separation anxiety when we leave the house and just sleeps. Sammy is very well-behaved and does not bother or destroy things around the house.
Sammy enjoys laying on the couch to take naps or to cuddle with us as we watch tv. He will run after his toy if I throw it a couple times (see video), and he also likes to play tug-of-war with stuffed animals. During Sammy's time with us, he's been around small and large dogs. He is good with them all.
A typical day in Sammy's life at our house includes breakfast at 7 am and going for a walk. Then we would go to work, come home mid-afternoon, and take him for another walk. Dinner is around 7 pm and another walk. He sleeps through the night.
Sammy is a very good boy. Recently, he learned the "sit" command. Teaching an old dog a new trick is no issue with a smart boy like Sammy!"
Sammy is ready to give his love and devotion to a forever family. Could it be you?
