🐾 HOW TO ADOPT: The fastest way to start is to submit an adoption application directly (labs4rescue.com/adopt). Please use our official website rather than the Petfinder "Start your Inquiry" button. Sassie Mae is a beautiful black Lab mix weighing approximately 55 pounds and is about 18 months old. This sweet, smart girl has a medium-to-high energy level and loves children, other dogs, car rides, and spending time with her humans. She is house trained, crate trained, and currently working on leash training. Sassie Mae loves to run and play, especially with balls and sticks, but she’s just as happy curling up for naps with her people. She knows commands like “sit” and will gladly offer her paw for attention. Sassie Mae came to rescue through no fault of her own after her previous owners could no longer give her the time she deserved. She is ready to find a forever family that will give her the love, attention, and fun-filled life she’s been waiting for!
