"Sammy came to DDR because his owner passed away His family felt he needed an adult-only home, as he has not been socialized with children to their knowledge. He has lived with multiple adults at different times. Sammy has lived in harmony with dogs of all sizes as well as cats. He has never shown food or toy aggression, but he does bark a lot when he first meets people. However he seems to chill out when he has more consistent socialization. He thrives when he gets to go outside for a few walks a day or just hang out in your yard, and then come inside to be your snuggle buddy. His favorite thing was cuddling with his mom in her recliner under a blanket. Sammy is still overweight. His foster dad is working on that with almost daily walks and portion control on food. Sammy has learned to use the doggy door but still chooses to use the puppy pads sometimes. If the pads aren't out he will just use the floor, however Sammy was in boarding for a month and a half after his owner passed away so he is acclimating to being back in a home setting...and a whole new home setting and different schedule then what he was used to.Sammy has never told his foster dad he has to go out. Once he learned the dog door, he goes out about 75% of the time.He didn't bark for most of the first week. Now that he has started to settle in, he barks allot."
