About Sadie

Meet Sadie, a sweet 1-year-old Miniature Pinscher/Terrier mix weighing around 13 pounds. This gentle girl is looking for a loving, patient family to help her bloom. A quick learner, she already walks well on a leash and continues to progress as she navigates her new world. Sadie has a soft demeanor; she rarely barks and shows no signs of aggression. However, she can be shy and nervous around unfamiliar faces and larger dogs. When overwhelmed, she tends to freeze instead of reacting, so her ideal home would be a quiet and peaceful one, away from the hustle of city life. This little gem needs an adopter who understands that trust takes time. With gentle encouragement and a calm presence, Sadie can gain the confidence she needs to become a wonderful companion. She’s already spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. Sadie has so much love to give; she just needs someone willing to see the special soul behind her shyness. Ready to help Sadie shine?
