About Sasha

Sasha is about two years old and looks like an American Staffordshire Terrier mix. She’s a strong, tan girl who was found wandering on her own and having to fend off unwanted attention. Now, Sasha is adjusting well in rescue and has proven to be affectionate and loving once she feels safe. She gets along with other dogs—her buddy Nadia is at the rescue too—but she’d be just as happy being someone’s one and only. Sasha rides calmly in the car, sometimes resting her head on your shoulder and sneaking a kiss if she can. She’s leash trained, enjoys going for walks, and is both house and crate trained. Sasha has a medium energy level, content to relax but always up to try something new, like hiking or camping. She’s quick to learn and responsive to training. She hasn’t lived with cats, so a feline-free home is best for her. Sasha is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. She just wants a safe place, time to settle, and someone who gives her the attention she’s never had. Start your journey together! Apply now.
