About Us
Sam, the Dog of the Day
Name: Sam
Age: Three months old
Gender: Male Breed: German Shepherd
Home: Ft. Worth, Texas, USA
 
   We got Sam one month ago. He came from a litter of thirteen! There was not a "getting used to" period like we have had in the past when we acquire a new pet. He seemed to fit right in as if he had always been part of the family. He is just the sweetest puppy! He is eager to please and has already learned the sit and speak commands. He loves to play with our other dog Abby, a mixed boxer breed. Sam is special to us for many reasons. He has been a godsend for Abby. Abby was not very sociable but Sam has really brought out the best in her.

    Sam likes to play chase with a stick, toy, or whatever he can pick up off the ground before you do! I sometimes see him playing tug-o-war with Abby in the back yard. Sam likes to spend as much time as we will let him indoors but never whines and scratches at the door when he is put outside. We are still house training him but have seen much improvement. He is very loving and he likes to "pet" you when you are petting him. I think he is quite an addition to our family.
