H e didn’t run up to us. He didn’t bark. He lay there, quiet, confused, and abandoned at our gates.
A young dog with a past we may never fully understand, Sam carries a genetic disorder that has caused both of his hind limbs to be bent, possibly the absurd and unjustifiable reason for his abandonment.
Although timid at first, seeming unsure if he’ll be hurt again, Sam can learn to trust, and once he does, he becomes the gentlest companion, great with people and wonderful with other dogs. His energy levels are low, but his spirit is deep, and we have already reassured him that if he doesn’t find a special person to adopt him (though we will never lose hope), he will always be safe with us. All he needs now is someone proud enough to say he’s their virtual pet; someone who will sponsor him while we provide five-star bed and board!
If you’ve always held a special place in your heart for the dogs that get left behind, why not become a virtual pet parent and give dogs like Sam the honor of being someone’s beloved pet?

4. You will ensure that all your family members affected by the adoption/fostering are in agreement, and that they will do their best to promote the interests of the animal.
5. We will do a house visit to ensure that you and the animal would be comfortable living with each other there. If necessary, we will advise on ways to adjust the living quarters to suit the animal.
6. You will pick up the animal from its present location, or, if possible, we will drop the animal at your house.
