Sage is a truly wonderful girl with a heartbreaking past, but we know her future can be so much brighter with the right person. 💛

Sage was abandoned at a dog park when her owner moved away. Through conversations with his ex, we learned that Sage experienced abuse in her previous home. This has understandably left her fearful of strangers—especially men—and cautious in new situations.

Because of her past, Sage is looking for a very specific home:

An adult-only home (no children)
Rescue-experienced adopters who understand fearful dogs
A dog-free home, as she has had conflicts with other dogs
A patient family willing to do multiple meet-and-greets to earn her trust

Sage can be a bite risk when she feels unsafe, so her future home must be committed to going at her pace and respecting her boundaries.

But here’s the beautiful part—once you earn Sage’s trust, you’ll have a bond like no other. 🐶💕
She absolutely loves walks, cuddles, chest scratc
