Sage is settling in beautifully with his foster and showing just how easy he is to live with. He is crate trained, potty trained, and comfortable being left alone for four or more hours at a time. Sage genuinely enjoys his crate and treats it like a cozy den, though he’s just as happy relaxing nearby and keeping his person company. Sage has a calm, observant personality and prefers to take things at his own pace. On walks, he has been easy to handle and non-reactive to passing people, making outings relaxed and enjoyable. He is treat-motivated and responds well to gentle guidance, especially as he continues working toward a healthy weight. Overall, Sage is a quiet, steady companion who would be a wonderful fit for a home looking for a low-key, affectionate dog with excellent manners.
