Sammy, age 6

Shalom! My name is Sammy. I was rescued when I was 3 years old. One of my hobbies is wagging my nonexistent tail with poise and shaking my butt when I sprint to chase toys. I use my short legs to hop up the stairs and jump onto beds, which can be a struggle, but I still go up the stairs quicker than my owners. One of my ears is always flopping up and down, so my brother and sister call me Floppy. I ignore them. When I go on walks, I bark at squirrels, dogs, cats, flowers and anything that moves until my leash gets yanked. I love to chew on bones in my free time and sleep in between my mom and dad. My dad occasionally lets me lick his bowl of food, although there is nothing left to lick. Thank you for your time, and feel free to pass along any bones.
