Are you right for Sam Dobermann?
Sam is a sweet 1-year old Dobermann looking for an active home to keep his busy brain occupied! Sam is able to live with another dog in the home, pending a successful meet in the centre - he is very playful! If not, he would benefit from having tolerant, social doggy friends out and about! Sam is a lovely boy, who is very friendly meeting new people but can be a bit bouncy so would be best suited to a family with older primary school aged children+. Sam is a young, energetic breed so would be looking for active owners that are willing to take him on fun, sniffy adventures out and about where he can run around and burn some energy! He loves to play with toys, and will chase a good ball! Sam would be brilliant for an active or outdoorsy family that want a fun companion that they can take everywhere.
He can pull a bit on lead, but once he's had a good run around he's a lot better. He is also a foodie, intelligent boy so any training should be smooth sailing!
Is Sam Dobermann right for you?
He travels well in the car and is fully house-trained, so any adventures will be so fun! He is a big fan of a zoom around off-lead, and will need to be kept physically and mentally enriched to thrive.
Sam is a handsome lad, who is happy to be handled by anyone in any capacity. He doesn't mind visiting the vets, and is gentle with younger children - though can still be a bit bouncy at times! Sam would prefer a family to spend time with him at home while he settles in, and build his leaving hours nice and slowly.
Sam does not like cats, and will chase them so would prefer to live in an area where cats will avoid him! He is such a fun, loving and goofy lad and we can't wait to see him thriving!

We’ll review your application
We’ll review your application against the dogs in our care at your chosen centre. If we think we have the right dog for you, we’ll be in touch as soon as possible. If we don’t hear back from you, we will close your application for now, and you can reapply when you’re ready.

Show detailsIf we’ve found a dog who seems right for you, we’ll invite you to come and meet them at the rehoming centre.
Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance to build a bond before making a commitment to give them a new home. By taking some time at the beginning to make sure everyone’s comfortable, an adoption is more likely to be successful.
We may also arrange a home visit with you, to see how your house will be set up and check that the garden (if you have one) is secure. This may not be necessary, though, especially if you’ve adopted from us before. Where you already have dogs, we may accept a reference from your vet as an alternative.

If we haven’t found the right match, we’ll continue the search together
If we haven’t found the right dog for you within three months, we’ll let you know your application is closed. We’ll invite you to apply again so we have up-to-date information about you, and we’ll keep looking.
