Sweet Sadie's Story

Sweet Sadie is still looking for her perfect home!<br/><br/>Sadie is 3 years old, about 40 pounds, and has a classic black tri coat and great Aussie wiggle butt! She was raised with her sister in a loving home but, sadly, is no longer getting the attention or exercise she deserves. Her family realized it wasn’t fair to keep her cooped up with little interaction, so Sadie is now ready to find her forever home where she can shine! She lives outside and comes into the garage at night, but we expect she will pick up house training very quickly! She is spayed and up-to-date on vaccines and preventatives.<br/><br/>Sadie has an adventurous, goofy spirit and loves to run and explore! A secure, fenced yard is ideal, as she has been known to escape. Sadie is all about the love! If you’re a stranger, don’t worry, her little nub will wiggle as she happily jumps up to give you kisses. She's affectionate, playful, and enjoys being touched all over. She's a good leash walker, loves people, and gets along with other dogs. She does have prey drive, so no cats for Sadie. She hasn't been around young kids, but she’s a total sweetheart with adults. Sadie will need training since she is a jumper and needs to work on redirection and recall.<br/> <br/>Likes: Belly rubs, chewing on toys, chasing balls (fetch is optional), and sitting for treats.<br/>Energy level: Medium—enough for fun, but not a wild child!<br/> <br/>What’s Next?<br/>If you’re ready to open your heart (and maybe your fence) to Sadie, let us know! You would be giving a fun-loving pup a second chance at the happy life she deserves.<br/> <br/>Apply at Aussie Rescue of the Mid-Atlantic, https://aussierescueofthemidatlantic.org/applications-2/
