About Sage

Meet Sage. Sage is what we lovingly call a TBD. This little one has a big personality and an interesting way of choosing her people. If she loves you, it’s obvious. But if you catch her on an off day, her reaction might remind you of Cujo. It's amusing, yet it makes preparing an adoption bio a bit of a challenge. At Pattie's Waggin' Tails, we've learned that many dogs who might seem unadoptable can thrive once they have a quieter home and a routine that suits them. Sage is around 10 years old and weighs about 20 pounds. She was recently spayed and came to us from ACCT Philly. She needs a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let Sage set the pace for their bond. Could you be the person she's waiting for? We think it’s worth the chance to find out.
