Our Animals
These are the members of Samson's Squad looking for their forever home!
Sweeney
Hi! My name is Sweeney, and I am just the goodest boy, can't you tell?!
I'm only 7 months old, but I've seen and been through a lot in my short life! My siblings and I found ourselves malnourished in a rural Texas animal control with Parvo and coccidia at about 6 weeks old. These diseases are known as puppy killers, but thank goodness Samson's Sanctuary scooped us all up and that we all had the will to survive and thrive! And that is exactly what we are all doing now, thriving!
Only except my siblings and other friends all got adopted and are thriving in their furever homes and I'm still waiting. I got adopted when I was a tiny baby, and I guess the family didnt take puppy responsibility seriously. They promised to do the training work a puppy requires no matter what, and that they would love my unconditionally but I guess they changed their mind. They returned me 3 weeks later. I don't understand what I did wrong! No one ever taught me how to be a good boy in a home, I just needed a fair chance and time to adjust. I have been in a few foster homes and even a board and training program since then, and everyone who cares for me loves me so much. I have learned lots of good boy manners since I was returned and I'm ready to find my family!
I just healed from 2 emergency surgeries on my elbow, and even that couldn't bring me down! I'm already back to running and playing on the beach and everywhere else I'm allowed to!
I'm a 40 lb bundle of love. All I really want to do is shower you with kisses, snuggle, go on fun walks, and show you how incredibly smart I am. Puzzles, games, tricks...no problem! And I'm not trying to brag, but did I already mention I'm smart? Because I'm also potty trained and ask nicely to go outside too. AND I like to sing opera. Check me out on our IG & tiktok! @SamsonsSanctuary
I'd really like a furever home fur the howlidays. I've really been waiting my WHOLE LIFE! If you want to be my forever family, I promise I'll be your very best pal. Pretty please apply to adopt me, and you'll find out how awesome I really am!
Cade
Looking for a giant lap dog? Cade is a sweet 2.5 year old boy who was seen getting dumped in Azusa Canyon. His microchip led back to an owner who said they returned him to the breeder they purchased him from. We don't know who dumped this sweet baby boy but we do know he deserves way better! He is loving life in his foster home, loves making new doggie friends, and the biggest love bug you'll ever meet! He has been searching for over 6 months for his furever home!
Cade loves to go on adventures such as hikes, swims, car rides, he's down for whatever! He is also loving learning new things with his trainer, he's such a smart boy. Cade would be the best addition to your family!!

Mickey
Meet Mickey! *URGENT FOSTER NEEDED*
Mickey is a sweet 1 1/2 year old Jindo Mix that is great with all dogs and people! He was rescued by our partners in South Korea. He spent most of his life chained up outside, and was raised to be sold to the meat trade. Luckily, our partners found out and saved him just in time! Mickey took his freedom flight September 9th. Since then he is slowly adjusting to LA life, however he would much prefer a quiet home in the suburbs or countryside, as car, truck, and other noises are very new and scary to him. He is currently thriving in a board and train program with one of our trusted trainers, but has nowhere to go after that!
Mickey needs a committed foster or adopter! Could that be you?
Leia Leashwalker
Little Leia Leashwalker was found last week by one of our super fosters after she was abandoned in a busy, scary, shopping center parking lot! She was only 7 lbs and 7 weeks old when she was found, who could do such a thing to such an innocent baby?! And to make matters worse, the poor girl had coccidia!
We are so happy little Leia is safe in her foster home now, but she is looking for her furever! She is a German Shepherd puppy so she will likely grow to a medium/large size. She is a sweet, playful girl who loves kisses, snuggles, and food!
Apply to adopt Leia, and make her your best friend furever!
Spud
Spud is a 10 year old chihuahua with a whole lot of life in him! Don't let his age fool you, he loves to go for walks, play with squeaky toys, and roll in the grass! He is spunky, smart, and a sucker for chicken. He has been with us for 8 MONTHS!! And only had one application. This funny guy just needs a chance to feel safe in a home that will love him unconditionally.
Apply to foster or adopt Spud!
Midnight
Midnight is a sweet 2 year old Jindo mix. Roughly 30 lbs.
She enjoys long walks on the beach and vanilla ice cream, but isn’t fond of cats or the dog meat trade she was rescued from being sold to.
She has been treated for heart worms, and checked over to make sure she is healthy enough to fly. Now all she needs is a foster or furever home to make it happen!
Apply to adopt Midnight before the clock strikes 12!
Dolce
Meet Dolce from her litter the "Designer dogs"! She is the most timid of the bunch, but she just needs a loving family to show her life doesnt have to always be scary! And check out those ears, can you even handle the cuteness?
These beautiful jindo mix pups are safe now, in a shelter in South Korea where they were rescued. It has NOT been easy for them! 11 of them were crammed into a tiny crate being sold at the meat market! 11 turned to 7 as they battled parvo after our team rescued them. Now sadly 7 has become 5 as 2 more as the result of more health complications that could have been avoided if they were never in that horrible place. We don't know who their parents are, so we cant know for suer how big they will get but we estimate medium size.
We are so lucky that 5 survived and that they will be healthy enough to board their freedom flights in time for the holidays! They are about 4 months old now and will be spayed/neutered in a few weeks (before their flight).
Dior
Meet Dior from her litter the "Designer dogs"! Even though she has the shortest legs of her siblings, she is the most playful and active!

Joy
Joy is the momma of our Pastry Pups! (Check out Happy tails to see their stories!)
When we agreed to help the pastry pups of course the first thing we asked was, “What about mama?” At that time there was another rescue that had put her on hold, but have since gone dark! So we are back to rescue our girl!
Joy is a little over a year old and just the sweetest little lady!
She is being treated for heartworms and will be spayed and ready for her freedom flight probably around November… just in time for some holiday Joy!!
