Sammy

Sammy is a 3 year old neutered male. Sammy is a wonderful, sweet, sensitive cocker spaniel. He is buff colored with white highlights. At about 48lbs, he is a little larger than the average cocker spaniel. We think he may be part English as well as American because of his size and because he is a little more muscular than the other cocker spaniels in the family. Despite his size, he is very gentle. He was the youngest of the cocker spaniels he has lived with and although he grew larger, he was always was the youngest and followed the other pups. Sammy can be nervous and shy if he is alone. If he has an owner who can be at home or who is retired (or a couple so someone can be with him) that would ideal as he will cry if he is alone. He did live with a very gentle female cocker spaniel and they loved to play together. “Fetch the ball” and “Is that mine?” are his favorite games. He likes to grab your hat (sometimes out of a coat pocket or will try to take it off your head). He will run away with it, wagging his tail and want you to chase him. Sammy would be a great addition for a family with children over 16 -as he has no experience living little kids. He is fine with older cocker spaniels who are gentle like him. Soft dog-beds and blankets are things he loves. No dog-bones except the clear chew bones. Sammy needs a harness because he likes to chase squirrels, birds and rabbits and may get out of a collar. He is neutered and a very healthy 3 year old who needs a lot of love and a family who can provide him with lots of attention. Because he likes to run and sniff everything, he also needs a big fenced in yard. Sammy needs a little more socialization because he was born during the pandemic and is used to being with his pack family.
