My name is Sadie!

Sadie was born on a farm in Mississippi but has lived in Western North Carolina her entire life. She is very attached to her owner of 11 years and tends to be overprotective and very vocal when strangers are around. She is reactive to people and dogs although she has enjoyed going to the same doggie daycare her entire life. She would do best in a home without small children as her herding nature can be strong. Sadie would do best with owners who are experienced with reactive dogs or Australian Shepherds, dog training experience would be ideal but isn’t required to adopt. A home with more than one person would be great so that she doesn’t get attached to just one person and she would respond well to firm yet gentle leadership. Sadie does have a heart murmur but it doesn’t seem to impact her at all and she has loads of energy for her age.
