Meet Sam (20250221-08)

 Sam’s Story: From the Wild North to Warm Hearts
Sam was found as a stray in Northern Manitoba, but you’d never know he had a rough start – this happy, goofy pup is full of love and charm. He’s a fast learner who wants nothing more than to be part of a family, and he’ll thrive with someone who can give him structure, play, and plenty of cuddles.

Sam is still learning the ropes of good puppy behavior — like what’s okay to chew and how to politely greet people on leash — but he’s eager to learn and responds well to redirection. He’s already picking up skills like responding to a whistle and is crate trained (even if he’s not its biggest fan).

He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, has lived peacefully with a cat, and has shown he’s respectful when a kitty sets boundaries. He even charmed a pet store cat and left politely when swatted! In foster care, he loved having a playful doggy buddy and would thrive in a home with a dog sibling — but he’ll also be just fine as your one-and-only with enough attention.

Sam enjoys calm indoor time and lives for outdoor adventures. Whether it’s napping in the sun or tagging along for a coffee run (he’s a big fan of pup cups), Sam is happiest when he’s by your side. He travels well in the car and is always up for the next adventure.

If you’re looking for a loyal, outdoorsy, and slightly goofy best friend, Sam might be your perfect match.
