COURTESY POST

Sam is a 5 year old Rottie who was not socialized.sufficently by his prior owner. When his owner moved into an apartment, Sam was given to an elderly man who made some rookie mistakes with him and cannot care for him . Sam is strong on the leash, rumored to be a resource guarder (the new owner attempted to take a bone from him the first day he had him), and has not been around other dogs or kids. Baywater Animal Rescue in Cambridge MD offered to help so is seeking a working-dog-savvy home with a knowledgeable owner who can help Sam become the best version of himself. He needs and deserves a chance.The new owner also reports that he gave Sam a bath upon arrival. Sam had never been in a tub before and the new owner reached behind him to turn the water on. Sam bit him on the hand, but this may have just been a reaction to a new place with a person he just met doing something to him he didn't understand. Sam is still with this owner, but his time is limited with him and the rescue is full. He is just too much dog for him. Please contact Baywater Animal Rescue at 410-228-3090 if you can find a place in your rescue or home for this dog. Thank you!
