My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sadie is a goofy, affectionate, and loving dog in search of a new home where she can be the apple of your eye. She came from a hoarding case / backyard breeder in 2017, and since then has made the most incredible strides. Within a week of arriving in her home, she picked up potty training, got used to doorways and dishwashers, stairs and washing machines—and found her way into the hearts of everyone she met. The family she has been with since 2017 loves her dearly, and is heartbroken to have to find her a new home, but unfortunately her relationship with their other dog has deteriorated over time.

Sadie has been trained to do lots of fun things—the usual suspects (sit, stay, paw), plus some even better ones like kissing on command and raising both paws (“sit pretty!”). She’s been taught “place” and “touch” and not to eat until her humans say, “free!”. She sleeps happily in her crate, but if the crate door is left open, she’s been known to get on her humans' bed in the early morning hours and burry her face into theirs until they get up. There is simply no better alarm clock.

Sadie loves being outside. Her favorite past time is chasing squirrels up trees and watching the birds and bugs flutter around. She is a high energy dog that loves being taken on runs and long walks. She would do best in an active home that can give her plenty of exercise. And she would be so happy to have a yard to explore.

When you come home, Sadie will remind you every single time that you are her everything. Her bear hugs—despite every effort to teach her to sit politely when the door opens—are a part of who she is. She loves her people (and guests!) so much that “sit” is rather tough for her when people come inside. And when you leave, she can get pretty sad too (which manifests as barking)—but if you leave her in a cozy space with her bed, a kong with peanut butter, and some music on, it helps soothe her until you return. Ideally, she shouldn’t be left alone for more than 4-5 hours at a time.
