About Sam Adams (TN)
Meet Sam Adams, a delightful 5-year-old rat terrier-chihuahua mix weighing in at a perfect 16 lbs. Sam Adams is the epitome of a well-behaved companion, with perfect house training, impeccable house manners, and a gentle, easy-going nature. He is eager to greet new friends, be they human, canine, or feline, and he is friendly and gentle with everyone.
While he may be a trifle nervous about new environments and situations, he gets acclimated pretty quickly. A great watchdog, he will burst out barking when someone knocks or rings at the door or he sees someone right outside the window, and while he settles down quickly as soon as he gets a chance to meet the person, he still would not be well suited for an apartment or other home with shared walls. Very people-oriented and food motivated, Sam Adams is highly trainable and already knows verbal commands like Sit, Back, Wait, Crate, and "uh-un!" He is affectionate and snuggly, usually low key and calm, but he will happily engage in playful activities when the mood strikes, like chasing a tennis ball or running around with his favorite dentabone.
If you're looking for a dog with a triple-A rating (affectionate, attentive, and adorable!) then Sammy could be just right for you! Please check out more photos of Sam Adams and info about him in his online photo album at http://www.Imageevent.com/beales/fosters/samadams .
