Without a home commitment, he won’t be able to make the trip. <br/><br/>Meet Sam <br/>This 6-month-old Beagle mix is part of a local surrender case where the shelter believes the previous owner was breeding and selling puppies. Sam and his brother Dean are the last of their litter still waiting for homes. <br/><br/>Despite his past, Sam is a sweet, playful, and affectionate pup. He is dog friendly, cat friendly, and kid friendly, making him a wonderful fit for many households. Sam is currently working on potty training, crate training, and leash training — all the normal puppy basics. <br/><br/>Sam weighs about 25 lbs and is expected to be a medium-sized dog when fully grown. He will be neutered before transport and is up to date on vaccines and dewormer.
