Sam

Sam, also known as Sammy and SamIAm, is an 8-year-old Labrador Retriever/Pit Bull Terrier mix who has been with his rescue for seven years. He is funny, curious, and friendly, with a playful, food-motivated personality.

Ideal Home

Sam must be the only pet and is not suitable for homes with small children. His adopter must live in upstate New York within one hour of Rochester.

Ongoing Health

Sam’s ankle was crushed during his first year while he was living on a chain. It was surgically plated, but his ankle will always remain crooked and he will always limp.

Training & Support

• Crate and leash trained.
• Needs an adopter willing to work with his ADHD and mouthiness; anything within reach may end up in his mouth, though he is highly food motivated.
• Needs daily walks and mind games. He enjoys rolling several times during walks, so walks may be leisurely rather than long.
• Stuffed toys last only a few seconds with Sam.

Application Details

• Adoption fee: $150.
• Applications start by contacting the provider through Wags.
• Applicants must be located in upstate New York no more than one hour from Rochester.
• Sam must be the only animal in the home and cannot live with small children.
