Sammy
adult Small Yorkie/Shih-tzu mix - Gray Court, SC
Sammy is a 3-year-old Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix weighing about 19 pounds of pure cuddle potential. He is a true lap dog who also loves to settle right at your feet, happy just to be close to his person. Calm, gentle, and affectionate, Sammy has done wonderfully around a 1-year-old child and is very patient and relaxed in her presence.
Sammy has a soft way of asking for love—he’ll gently hop up for attention rather than demanding it. He enjoys being outside and has become more playful as he settles in, showing off his curious side. Because of that curiosity, he does like to check the perimeter of the fence, so a secure yard or supervised outdoor time will be important.
He walks well on a leash outdoors, though he finds indoor leashes a bit confusing and may “stall” at first—something that should improve with routine and confidence. Sammy does currently wear a belly band in the house due to some marking, which is not uncommon during transitions and is expected to improve as he settles into a consistent new home.
Sammy would be a wonderful companion for an older person or anyone looking for a calm, loyal buddy. He may also thrive in a home with another friendly dog who enjoys playtime and can help bring out his fun side.
If you’re looking for a sweet, steady little companion who just wants to be near you, Sammy might be the perfect fit.
