About Sadie

Meet Sadie! This charming 8-year-old, 56-pound mixed-breed girl is ready to find a new family. Life changed for her when her previous owner fell ill, leaving her searching for a loving home. At first, Sadie might come off as a bit shy, but bring out a toy, and her playful spirit shines. Fetching and tugging are her favorites, and she enjoys cuddling with her stuffies after a good play session. Once she’s had her fun, Sadie is happy to curl up beside you for a cozy nap. She is completely house trained, knows how to sit, and walks like a pro on a leash. While car rides are an adventure, she sometimes needs a little boost to jump in. Sadie is energetic for her age, but she also appreciates relaxing with her person. Due to her tendency to be bossy with other dogs, she would thrive as your only pup or with an experienced adopter who can help her improve her manners. The best part? Thanks to her age, her adoption fee is waived. Sadie is spayed, vaccinated, and healthy, eagerly awaiting her next chapter. If you believe Sadie could be the perfect match for you, don't hesitate to apply today!
