Dream dog Sams desperately waits for a new home in Bayreuth!

In the Bayreuth shelter, dog Sams, a Münsterländer-Schäfer-Mix, has been waiting for a new home since November 2024. Despite his friendly nature, he has not yet received any inquiries for mediation. Sams is almost ten years old, weighs 25 kilograms and was handed over due to the changed living conditions of his owner. The animal shelter employees describe him as well hearing, house-house and trusting. He loves to cuddle, enjoy long walks and can easily stay alone. The shelter has emphasized that Sams prefers a quiet home and a lot of time in nature, and wishes it to get the chance to show his potential. Infranken reports .

The Bayreuth shelter not only has to convey Sams, but also offers a variety of other dogs. These include Simba, a Labrador Schäferhund mix, and Mia, a mixed breed, both of which were given due to family changes. Simba is socially compatible, but needs dog -experienced owners, while Mia needs an experienced caregiver and is looking for a rural home. Max, a German German Shepherd, shows distrust of strangers and demands a lot of patience from his new owners. The homepage of the animal shelter provides more information on the placement criteria and protection fees.
