- Witty - Uses his smarts to his advantage.
- Thick double coat - Can withstand colder temperatures.
Weaknesses:
- Naive/Weak-willed - Finds it difficult to attack and kill things, flees from most dangers

Background:
When the infected first invaded and the humans either left or threw out their pets, a small amount of samoyeds, being a somewhat popular dog, managed to find each other and create a small, organized group within a wealthy part of the city. During those coming years they established roles. Mothers, the elderly or the young had to stay at the base while they sent the more nimble dogs out to scavenge. They believed as pure-bred dogs, they were the superior breed who would live through this. They were wrong.
Sickness and infection hit them, killing some and leaving those who were left weakened and tired, hardly able to leave to scavenge for food. When Quinn was 1 year old his mother began to fall ill and sent him out with the rapier and a harness. The group is presumed to be dead or infected.
After these events Quinn was alone, partially sheltered from the true horrors of the city, he tried to avoid other animals and became skittish and reclusive, avoiding groups. He was taught some of the basics from his family, but otherwise had to learn for himself or from others what not to do. Now a year since he left, he has mostly adapted to his new situation and has met a couple other dogs along the way.
When exploring a relatively quiet side of the city, he thought he could scent some sort of flower or plant, rounding the corner he found the tipped over trashcan. It was the perfect size and the inside was already covered with moss, though he needed to cover it up with the only cloth he had. After gathering up some brambles and sticks for the outside it finally began to feel somewhat like a home. He stores most of his resources behind it, in a small hole in the back, where there's just enough room between the bin and the building to place items. Quinn covered the walls in sticks and thorn bushes to protect them from any smaller animals who might be able to squeeze their way past.
