SAMANTHA's Story

MEET THE LOVELY MS. SAMANTHA...Sammi for short! Her previous owners swear that she is a purebred Lhasa Apso, but we think she looks more Shih Tzu! Whatever her breed, at 10 yrs old she lost her 94 yr old mom, and we were asked to help find her a new home. Sammi is about 12 lbs, tri colored, adorable and a bit shell shocked, as you can imagine. Her mom was a senior when she brought her home as a puppy and Sammi has lived a very sheltered life. Now, she loves her walks, does her business outside, and we have been introducing her to new things! She is slowly coming around and showing us her personality.<br/><br/>All that being said, Samantha is a very affectionate dog once she realizes you are her friend. Her favorite places are either sleeping behind your head in bed, hiding in the pillows on the couch and crawling on your chest to listen to your heart beat!! She can be a little sassy if you do something she doesnt like, but she is more reactive than anything! She came to us with a horrible ear infection and was very protective of her ears. Now, she loves it when you rub them because it makes her feel better! She also had a UTI, which we have been treating. For a senior, she has a lot of pep to her step and while she doesnt really play with toys and she sleeps a lot, she is beginning to come to us, eat new foods, follow us around and be a dog! She makes hilarious grunting sounds when you give her attention and watching her blossom is really a treat.<br/><br/>Sammi really needs a new person to love and give her the attention she needs. She will return it 10x once she knows you are her new family. She would be great in an active, mature home. Remember, small dogs live long lives...well into their teens. Sammi still has a lot of life in her and we are here to make sure she gets to enjoy it!! Could that be with you?
