Sammy

Hi, I'm Sammy, a five year old Great Dane with movie star looks and the softest soul. I'm a big, handsome guy in a black and white tuxedo, but underneath all that size I'm really just a sweetheart who wants to be close to my people. I love riding in the car, I load myself right up, and I'm such a good passenger that you may forget there's a giant dog along for the trip. At home, I'm the kind of boy who looks very happy stretched across the couch, soaking up the comfort and keeping you company.<br/><br/>Life has certainly taken a turn for the better since I came into rescue. My former owners were not able to care for me properly so I was very underweight when I was surrendered. Also, like many Danes, my "happy tail" wagged itself into lots of accidental injuries that bothered me a lot, so the good shelter folks decided that amputation was the best choice for this problem. Boy, am I glad to have that feel better and am doing great. <br/><br/>I've been living in a home while I recover, and I've shown everyone what a nice boy I am. I'm crate trained, housebroken, walk nicely on leash, and even know some basic commands. I've done well with adults, the college-age kids I met in my foster home, other dogs, and cats. Around food, I can get a little concerned if other animals come too close since food may not have been available to me as much as I would have liked in the past, so my people simply keep an eye on me and give me some space at mealtime. I have not shown any aggression, and I respond well to voice redirection and guidance.<br/><br/>I'm still filling back out and would benefit from a steady routine and good meals. Another fifteen pounds or more would be just about right for me. I'd love a family that understands I have a little anxiety about being left behind again. I do best as a family dog, and I'm happiest when I can be part of the day instead of off on my own. Keep me busy, give me love, and I will give you my whole heart. I'm smart, mannerly, affectionate, and so easy to fall for. If you've been hoping for a gentle giant who wants to be your loyal shadow, I just might be your Sammy.<br/><br/>Sammy's adoption fee is $275.
