"Sammie loves to be pet, if she could be pet all day she would. One of her favorite routines in the mornings is to sit on my lap on the couch while I drink my coffee." – Sammie's Foster
Sammie arrived a little unsure of the world, but thanks to her amazing foster mom, she's come out of her shell and into her own. These days, she's all wiggles, tail wags, and her signature move: excited little "tooth chomps" when she's happy. It's impossible not to smile around her.
She loves a little adventure-hardware stores, pet shops, and drive-thru pup cups are right up her alley-but she's just as content curled up next to you on the couch. She enjoys walks, car rides, yard zoomies, and recently discovered the joy of splashing in a kiddie pool.
Sammie does best in a home where someone's around most of the time. She can handle short stretches alone, but long days on her own aren't her thing. She enjoys the company of other dogs, especially calmer or smaller ones, and slow introductions have worked well in her foster home.
Sammie is ready to bring joy, comfort, and a little bit of silliness to the right home. Come meet her-you might just find your new best friend!

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
