Meet Sammi
Introducing Sammi! Sammi is a big boy with a big heart, yet he still has a lot of learning and training to do. Known for his exuberant greetings, Sammi tends to jump on people out of excitement (which can be alarming when the dog weighs roughly 90 lbs!). Sammi can be easily worried or overwhelmed by changes in his environment, and is in need of an adopter who can provide him with the necessary training and patience to help him become the best version of himself. He is working on his leash manners, but he is very strong and needs an adopter who is able to handle a large breed dog who pulls. His jumping behavior will need to be diligently addressed through training and positive reinforcement. Sammi will benefit from ongoing obedience training to help him channel his energy in a constructive way. Patience and consistency are key when it comes to helping Sammi learn and grow into a well-mannered and balanced dog.
If you have experience with large and strong dogs and can offer Sammi the structured and loving home he needs, stop by the shelter during open hours to inquire about him today.
If you think Sammi could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Nevins Farm Adoption Center in Methuen. We have open adoption hours Tuesday – Sunday from 12:00 pm – 4:30 pm with no appointment or application needed.
Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.
