About Sammie Lynn

Sammie Lynn is a beautiful, medium-sized German Shepherd with a bi-color plush coat and a fluffy tail, weighing around 60 pounds. She has striking soulful eyes and a lovely face. When Sammie Lynn first arrived, she was a stray who was quite dirty and thin. Initially, she can be a bit cautious and reserved, as is common with German Shepherds, until she gets to know you. However, once she forms a bond, she is incredibly devoted and dedicated, always wanting to be close to her people. Sammie Lynn enjoys walks, playing with rope toys in the yard, and loves to de-stuff plush toys and chew on durable items like bones and antlers.

Ideal Home

Sammie Lynn would be happiest in an adult-only home where she can be the sole focus of her family's attention. A home with fewer regular visitors would be ideal, along with a securely fenced yard. She needs to be the only pet in the household to give her family all her love.

Ongoing Health

Sammie Lynn was found as a stray and was underweight upon arrival.

Training & Support

This intelligent girl is very food-motivated and enjoys treats like carrots and apples. She thrives on puzzle toys and games that stimulate her mind, and nose-work activities in the yard would likely be a hit. Sammie Lynn already knows basic commands like "sit" and "down," and she is crate-trained. She is eager to learn and attentive, always looking for direction. As she can exhibit protective tendencies, an experienced owner familiar with the German Shepherd breed is recommended.
