Patch Pets: Samson

Samson, an adult terrier mix who is about three years old, was abandoned at Hightower Farms in Snellville.

Weighing approximately 11 pounds, Samson is a "sweet, happy, bouncy fellow who loves attention and a good snuggle, according to a review posted by Hightower Farms & Animal Sanctuary.

When he arrived at the animal sanctuary, Samson also had heartworms. Because of this, his adoption fee is waived. He is up to date on shots, and he will need heartwarm preventative medicine to stay healthy. Samson is also neutered, housetrained, and good with children and other pets.

The adoption fee is waived for Samson. Normally fees can be $145 for dogs and puppies. The fee includes the spaying or neutering, a negative heartworm test, all age-appropriate vaccinations, at least one de-worming, and flea, tick and heartworm prevention until the pet is adopted, according to the Hightower Farms website. Most dogs are micro-chipped, as well.

Hightower Farm requires an adoption application and contract to be signed.
