Sweet Samantha is looking for a home where she can receive some TLC. Are you ready to open your doors for her? Samantha came to APA! after being found in an abandoned home. Now she is chilling in an APA! foster home. She's shy and not quite ready to trust people yet, but with patience and time she should turn the corner.

She has a gentle, playful nature. She loves to play with her fosters' dogs, romping around the house, running back and forth inside and outdoors. Another favorite activity is playing keep-away with stuffed animals. She wags her tail around when she's happy and excited. And her ears pop up and her tail wags when she hears her name called. She seems beginning to want to cuddle, excited and jumping up on the bed where her foster was cuddling the other pups.

She's a smart girl who does well when her fosters are away from home, either settling down under a bed or playing with her dog buddies. She is house-trained and will use puppy pads if left alone too long. Her fosters would like to take her for walks but she's not crazy about a leash yet. That's one area of improvement for her new family!

Samantha will love a home with a doggie playmate and parents who can continue helping her learn that humans can actually be very lovable. She is a smart pup with a timid but sweet nature. With a supportive, patient family, she'll become their very fun companion!
