2-Year-Old Labrador Retriever Mix | 65 lbs of Goofy Charm | Available Near NYC

Sampson is a sweet, goofy soul who survived one of the worst situations imaginable—a 92-dog hoarding case in Mississippi. Despite everything he’s endured, this resilient 65-pound Labrador Retriever mix has kept his fun-loving, affectionate personality intact.

🐾 Why Sampson Stands Out

  • House-trained and crate-trained
  • Walks beautifully on leash
  • Knows basic commands (thanks to time with a professional trainer!)
  • Playful, goofy, and endlessly endearing
  • Affectionate with people and eager to please

Sampson is a “whole lotta dog” in the best way—energetic, enthusiastic, and full of personality. He plays with his whole body, which can be a lot for some, but his heart is pure gold. He’s been patiently waiting far too long for a forever home to call his own.

🏡 Ideal Home

Sampson would thrive in an active home with someone who appreciates his big personality and loving spirit. He’s looking for a family that will continue his training, shower him with affection, and give him the second chance he’s so clearly earned.

✅ Adoption Details

  • All dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines before adoption.
