Meet Sammy! She is an absolute saint of a dog and is ready for a new chapter in her life. Sammy arrived at WARL as a dog abandoned in Worcester. Her story began with uncertainty and questions. Sammy answered all of those questions and has shown us nothing but gentleness and resilience. Through medical challenges and big life changes, Sammy has remained soft, trusting, and quietly devoted to the people around her. She is the kind of companion whose presence alone brings a sense of calm.Ten Things We Love About Sammy:1. Lovey and demure with everyone she meets2.
