This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.

We bet you can't pass this cutie up! Sampson is cute as a button and full of non-stop action! He appears to be a Chihuahua/Pug mix or what we call a "Chug" and is around 5 months old. Sampson is good with other dogs and is okay with cats, but he does find it a lot of fun to chase them! He would never hurt one, but some cats may not find a good game of chase as amusing as Sampson finds it to be. He is cautious and timid with new people and situations. He doesn't like loud noises or when voices are raised, as he will totally shut down, and because of this he will do best in a home with no young children or a home with not a lot of coming and going. Sampson needs a patient person, one who understands that it may take a little time for him to be not so scared and one who will be soft-voiced and patient, but consistent through house training, leash training and obedience training. He is crate trained and knows "sit," "stay," and "wait." He loves to play fetch so much we think that he could play all day! He is very vocal, so he may not make a good apartment dweller. Sampson would love to have someone who has a lot of time and love to give. If that person is you, please fill out an application - Sampson is waiting just for you!
