About Sable

Sable is a young, large mixed-breed dog who came into our care thanks to our Humane Law Enforcement team. Initially fearful, he has been making remarkable progress in building trust with our trainers and is now beginning to embrace the joys of human companionship. With his gentle and courageous spirit, he promises to be a loving addition to a patient home that will continue his positive reinforcement training. Sable is best suited for a family with children over 10 years old and is still learning to navigate the world around him. His calming presence may open the door for a home that already has a dog, and possibly one with cats. This incredible pup is now fully vaccinated and neutered, ready to find his forever home.
