Our foster dog is here.
Sammi is about the cutest dog I’ve ever seen. I don’t know exactly what she is mixed with, but I am guessing mostly American pit bull terrier with some smaller terrier like a Jack Russell. She seems to be all terrier to me anyway! Basically she is a tiny pitbull. She is about a third of Ace’s size and very, very skinny. She didn’t want to eat her breakfast this morning because there were too many new things to smell and see, but I will be trying to put more weight on while she is with us.
If you are interested in adopting Sammi, send me an email at Lindsay@thatmutt.com or contact the 4 Luv of Dog Rescue in Fargo. (03/29/09 edit: Sammi has been adopted!)
Sammi will make the perfect dog for someone. I have only had her for a few hours, but I can already tell she is a very, very nice dog. Sammi is not very old, perhaps 10 months at the most. But so far no accidents in the house, and she doesn’t chew anything but her own toys.
You can see Ace is avoiding Sammi in the photo. That is typical of Ace when I bring in a new dog. He warmed up to her shortly after we went for a run and then went home. Both dogs have been playing nicely with their toys and having a great time. Ace was being possessive over the toys, however! For once, my dog is the dominant one.
Anyway, it is crazy in Fargo with the Red River flooding. I have a lot going on, but I will update you soon on how Sammi is doing.

Oh my, she is absolutely adorable! I hope you find her a forever home soon!

She has the cutest little face ever.
She looks so adorable.
If I lived in Fargo, I’d take her within a snap. She’s gorgeous.
I hope she finds a nice home soon.
Ace does look so unimpressed!
Too bad that I’m in the UK. I’d love to adopt her.
Already adopted a Boxer x last year and have had the joys and spills.
I think it’s lovely.

Awsome looking dog! I know what you mean with Fargo Moorhead right now. The water finally went down by us. We were getting a little nervous. Ruby and Bruno didn’t know what to think. Their yard was replaced by a lake. So we are safe now but the water had to go somewhere and that somewhere is Fargo Moorhead. My prayers are with all the people fighting so graciously trying to save peoples homes. Even if it isn’t theirs.

Thanks Apryl, I’m sure I will!
Thanks Charlotte. Too bad you are in the UK!
Shane, I hope everything turns out OK for everyone. I’m glad your house didn’t get any flooding.

Chelsea, just because your dog is a pitbull doesn’t mean it is going to be mean when it gets older. But the best thing you can do is begin training and socializing the pup while it is still young. Then, continue on with training throughout the dog’s life. Sign up for an obedience class so you can learn to teach your dog commands, but more importantly, the dog will get to socialize and interact with other dogs. Also, take your dog to many different places and have it meet as many people and dogs as possible.

I adopted a little dog just like Sammi in March 09 and she was 3 months old at the time. I love her and the only difference is my Skeeter is black and brown where Sammi is fawn colored but the same ears and everything….if she is like my little loving brute……She is very intelligent. I stay at home so I have time to be with her….as you need to do….I realized she was so smart…I went to the library to get books on training her to try to make sure she wasn’t outsmarting me.

I bet your dog is really cute! She’s lucky to have you!

Sammi looks exactly like our dog, except all black with the white chest patch. She also had those perky, but floppy ears when she was a pup. Her name is Izzy, shes three now. It seems like Sammi will have the same ears floppy when shes tired, straight back when shes scared, and straight up when she is on alert. Izzy is small too, shes only 38lbs, small but dense. If we lived near Fargo we would definitely be snatching her up. Good luck!

Sammi was adopted in about three days. Go figure! She’s too cute.
