Sam's Story

Meet Sam <br/><br/>Sam is... well, Sam. He's a 15 pound 1.5 year old Chihuahua mix. He's a quiet, gentle soul who needs time, patience, and understanding. When Sam first arrived, he was scared and unsure—his past wasn't kind, and it shows in how cautiously he approaches the world.<br/><br/>It took two weeks just to get him to willingly come out and approach for affection. But once he trusted me... everything changed. Sam became cuddly, playful, and even a little bossy in the most endearing way. He's talkative, full of personality, and does the cutest full-body butt wiggle when he's excited!<br/><br/>Sam needs an adopter who's willing to give him the time he needs to bloom. But once he trusts you, he'll be the most loyal, velcro pup you've ever known.<br/><br/>If you think you're the one to give this sweet boy his fresh start, apply below!<br/><br/> Adoption Application<br/>https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/33977/generic<br/><br/> We are a foster-based rescue with no facility. Dogs must be picked up in person in Bonifay, FL. We do not ship or transport.<br/><br/> A secure fenced yard is required unless otherwise stated.<br/><br/> All dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, dewormed, started on flea/heartworm prevention, and microchipped.

Sammy's Hope Rescue's Adoption Policy
Please read before submitting an application We do require a approved application for meet and greets. Why? Because otherwise we would be meeting with people who we would not adopt to and it would use a lot of time and resources for no reason. Since I do 99.9% of the meet n greets it's my time and gas. :) Remember we do not have a facility. We are foster based. We do require a fenced yard. Why? Because dogs deserve a safe open area to play in off leash. We do not expect dogs to be left alone in the yard or to be outside dogs. I often hear that. That is not why we require a fence. We do realize this will exclude some people. It is still a requirement. Dog parks are not considered a fenced yard. They can be a very dangerous place for a pup. We also require a home check. Why? Because we want to make sure the home is a safe environment. You would be surprised what I have seen. I could care less if your home is spotless. It should be safe though. If money is a issue please address that before all other steps are taken. Adoption fees are required to keep the rescue open. We only exist because of adoption fees and donations. We are a small rescue with limited funds. Adoptions are never ever first come first serve. Applications are accepted until we get a good match. It may take 1 application for that and it may take 10. We are trying the very best we can to get forever homes not right now homes. Oftentimes people do not research breeds before applying and are not the best match. We adopt within 2 to 3 hours of Bonifay, Florida. If you have questions about a dog comments are missed so please message the page, call 850-280-3960, or email sammyshope@aol.com.
