About Sage

Meet Sage, a clever terrier mix with a heap of personality and charm. At just over six years old, Sage has seen a little of everything. She lost her first home when her adopter was deployed overseas and couldn’t keep her, so she’s back looking for a reliable family that will stick by her. Sage is the kind of dog who just loves to be included—she’s eager to tag along on outings and will gladly keep pace with an active household. She knows her basic commands and is spayed, vaccinated, heartworm-negative, and housebroken, so the heavy lifting is already done. Sage shines around children and adjusts well to other dogs with a thoughtful introduction, though she’s a bit of a boss among her canine peers. No info yet on how she handles cats. Born April 1, Sage lands under Aries—a sign known for their adventurous spirit. If you’re looking for a loyal, outgoing companion, Sage is waiting in Dawson, GA, hoping for a second shot at a permanent home. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
