I am one of 1,500 dogs rescued from a testing laboratory, and now I am with Saving Sage. For my entire life, I was raised in a kennel environment and never learned how to be a normal dog. Everything around me is brand new feeling grass under my paws, being outside, walking on a leash, and receiving love and kindness from humans. I am still learning how to trust people and understand everything. I can be shy and unsure at first, and it will take time, patience, and compassion for me to fully open up. But with the right person by my side, I know I can learn what it truly means to be loved and part of a family.
