Just be happy that Sammy is healthy and happy. As Carmen said, the chances of a puppy being a little Sammy are slim. My boys are full brothers from different litters and they have many similarities, but they are different as night and day.
More importantly, the only breeders you would want to work with on this would not consider breeding Sammy without knowing a lot about his background and having genetic testing done. If you have legitimate AKC papers, you have the means to find his breeder.
I really think you would be better off looking for a pup from a good breeder. Much less hassle, and believe it or not, less costly.
