You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet our little bear, Sammy! She spent her whole life as an outdoor farm dog in Amish country, and was surrendered after her previous owner had children and no longer had enough time to spend with her. True to her breed, Sammy's one smart cookie and adapted to home life AMAZINGLY fast! She picked up crate and house training lickety split, and quickly decided the indoor life was for her! She's well mannered and a quick learner, and has been a lovely house guest! She doesn't have any anxiety when alone, and quietly naps in her crate like a good girl. She gets along perfectly with her male foster brothers and loves to romp and play with them, but needs to be the only female dog in the house. She cohabitates well with the resident cat, but is a little obsessed with him, so a kitty free forever home might be best for her. Sammy is an affectionate girl who lives for praise and to please her people. She enjoys a good belly rub, and will flop over at your feet and stay there as long as you're willing to pet her! She LOVES a good game of fetch, and is working on perfecting 'drop it' when returning her ball. She's already mastered sit, shake, and down, has excellent recall, and knows the command 'kennel.' Sammy loves car rides, walks well on lead, has zero leash reactivity, and is calm and well mannered in public situations. She does well meeting strangers, and has been an angel at all her vet and grooming visits! We've never had her around kids, but based off her temperament and how she is with new people, we assume she'd do well with proper introductions and appropriate supervision. A fenced in yard is strongly preferred for her forever home. Due to her fluffy double coat, her new owners will have to be committed to regular brushing. A grooming appointment every 6-8 weeks will keep her beautiful and tangle free!  Sammy is 7 years old, (though you'd never know it!), 65 lbs, and is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and current on monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention. She did test positive at the time of intake for Lyme and Anaplasmosis, which are both tick transmitted illnesses. Considering where she came from this wasn't too surprising, and she's been treated and is good to go! She does have old damage to one ear that caused it to heal crinkled down, and the other is floppy, which gives her the cutest cub-like appearance!  Otherwise she has no known health issues, is spry and bouncy, and is ready to find her forevers! Her adoption fee is $450. Please click here to submit an adoption application! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 16, 2026, 8:41 pm
