Sage's Story

I’m the last of the 32 feral dogs that came into the shelter last year, and I’ve come a long way since then. I’m still learning that people can be kind and safe, but I’m making steady progress every day. I may be a bit shy at first, but with patience and understanding, I continue to open up more and more.<br/><br/>Leashes are something I’m still getting used to, and I’m learning—slowly but surely—that they aren’t so scary after all. I’ll need a calm, patient home that will let me go at my own pace and celebrate the little wins with me. With time, consistency, and love, I have so much potential to become a loyal and rewarding companion.
