My story

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

This sweet face is Sage, the 1-2 year old hound mix momma who was found in the woods with her little pups. She had used a fallen tree with a hollow in it to shelter those pups and thank goodness we were able to get her in our care. It did take several weeks to catch her - but success! So as you can tell, Sage has been through a lot and each day just keeps getting better for her. Sage is in a foster home with other dogs and boy does she love their company. She is the best fit for a home with another dog as she is bashful and needs that confidence of another dog around to help her along in the household. Housebroken already! She is just that smart. She will even let you know when she is ready to go outside by going to the door as her queue (well your queue to let her out that is). She is not being crated at the foster home and does just fine without one. Her favorite thing in life is being around other dogs and she does enjoy the outdoor time in a secure fenced yard (wooden fence is best). She really would benefit from a home where she received a lot of one on one attention to show her what love is (and of course, with another dog in it - bonus!!) Her foster home has many dogs and it is challenging to provide that one on one attention she would benefit greatly in.

We recommend and encourage you to complete an application at http://henricohumane.org/adopt/application-for-dogs/ before coming to our next adoption event. To find out if I will be attending our next adoption event, please email dogs@henricohumane.org.

Adoption events are every Saturday, excluding holidays, at the Petco located at 11331 W. Broad Street, Glen Allen, VA (next to Trader Joe’s) from 11:00am to 2:00pm.
