Sammy, Adult, Male, Tricolor Treeing Walker Coonhound
Hi there! My name is Sammy, and I am the cutest thing on three legs you have ever seen! That's right - I said three legs. I recently had surgery to remove one of my front legs but am all healed up now and ready to go! And go I do! I am a very active guy who loves to run and play and can keep up with the best of them. Because I am so active, though, I would do best in a home with children over the age of 12. I am very social and love everyone I meet. I am also very loyal and affectionate. At the end of a long day of playing, I would like nothing better than to settle down with my favorite person. So if you think you have room in your heart and home for a guy like me, make an appointment today to come see me at AlexandriaAnimals.org/Adopt-By-Appointment. I will be waiting!
