About Sam

Introducing the stunning Sam! This lovely lad has come into us due to an owner change of circumstances, he’s been a very much loved boy and we’re looking for a family to love him just as much.

Sam is friendly with people, and has previously lived with other dogs, so he may be suitable for a home with another dog of similar size & energy provided that they got along at visits. He’s a high energy breed so would fit perfectly into an active home, and would benefit with a lurcher experienced owner with lots of time to give help settle him in and give him the exercise he needs.

Sam is full of beans & would love to go on adventures with you! He would very happily play all day and he’d love to have a big garden of his own and an owner with lots of time to play with him. He is a big strong boy and could do with a little on lead training (he’s just very enthusiastic!).

He is a very clever boy and is very food motivated so responds well to training but he would benefit from an experienced owner able to give him the consistency he has been lacking in the last couple of months. Because Sam is quite tall (and a little cheeky!) he is face height with tables and can be a little bit of a food thief which does need a little bit of management especially as he then doesn’t want to give his treasure back (he is very good at swapping it for a treat though!).

As a lurcher Sam has a strong prey drive, because of this we are not looking for homes with cats or small furries. Sam is super friendly but as a big bouncy boy he isn’t suitable to be rehomed with young children, sensible children of highschool age may be suitable.
