Meet Sam
Meet Sam, a spirited, young Husky/German Shepherd mix who is bursting with energy and ready to bring tons of joy into the right home! True to his one breed, Sam loves to “sing” his heart out and is always up for some playful antics. His ideal home would be with active, adults only and access to a safe and secure yard. His guardians should live in a quieter, more rural area, where he can run and play freely. No condo living for this youngster.
This energetic guy loves his walks, but due to his strong prey drive-particularly towards squirrels, birds, and other critters-Sam will need a guardian who can handle his excitable nature, especially when it’s time for walkies. He walks well on a leash but will need someone strong and confident to keep him focused.
Sam is best as the only pet in the household, allowing him to be the center of attention and receive the focus he deserves. He has some handling sensitivities, so experience with positive reinforcement training is key. With the right guidance, Sam will thrive and form a strong, loving bond with his family.
If you’re looking for a dynamic, entertaining companion who will keep you on your toes and fill your life with laughter and excitement, Sam might just be the perfect match for you!
