Wrigley went to a foster home!!!

Wrigley, Wrigley, Wrigley… she is losing hope day by day. She has been in the shelter system for many months now. She runs to greet every car and person that arrives, and also sees them off when they leave. This baby just wants someone to love. 🐾🖤

Breed identification is tricky! We can't afford to do DNA tests at SAMS, so we try to make educated guesses based on apprearance and/or behavior. Many dogs have several breeds in their mix, and that's a good thing! Our vet Dr. Brown calls their tendency toward good health "Hybrid Vigor." We always do our best to properly represent our pets to potential adopters...but please understand that we can't be sure of breed(s) unless a pet comes in with papers or we know their lineage. We also cannot accurately estimate the adult size of a pup but can make an educated guess! We do know that our shelter animals are 100% loved and that we will 100% do everything we can to find them the perfect homes. Check out our dogs and cats at petfinder.com and apply to adopt or foster at samsrescue.org!
