Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Saucy is a very delicious, female, 24 lb., 1 year old Dachshund/Pug mix, with little legs and an adorably little, muscular body. This girl is truly a gentle soul! Saucy just lo-o-o-ves her people and runs to see them, wagging her tail with joy and flopping over for sweet belly rubs. This girl has really grown into herself and when let out in the yard first thing in the morning, she zooms around in joyful abandonment.
Saucy also adores the other dogs in her foster home, playing with those both big and small. She is smart too...when she wrestles with the larger dogs, she positions herself underneath them and it's hard for them to get at her. Other times, she can be found laying on their front paws and kissing their faces.
Hilarious to watch as she carries her big toys around - little head held high - Saucy is also content to quietly chew on a toy, bringing them one by one to her bed. When she's done playing, this laid back girl will curl up for a nap and usually chooses to rest at your feet or in a nearby sunny spot.
Saucy is the ultimate yummy cuddle mate. One of her favorite times of the day is the evening, when her foster family settles on the couch and she snuggles up with them to sleep. With her striking emerald eyes and precious face crinkles, we are sure she will have her new family wrapped around her little paws in no time!
With both new people, dogs, and activities Saucy is at first cautious, but once she adapts, she's totally in for the fun. She knows sit, comes when called, and knows to wait patiently for her treats. She is crate trained, house trained if kept on schedule, and sleeps through the night.
Thank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (https://anewchancear.org). We are a 501c3, tax deductible organization. ANCAR is a foster-based rescue, and we adopt within a 90 mile radius of Bedford Hills, NY. You will find the adoption application here:(https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-application/).
Please read about the adoption process (https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-process/) so you'll know what to expect when you submit. All fields on the application must be completed in order for our volunteers to process it (https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-application/)
Our dogs are in foster care and we do NOT have a shelter or boarding facility. AN APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED IN FULL AND APPROVED BEFORE A DOG CAN BE MET. This is a firm policy, and our busy volunteers are not able to respond to questions about the dog or dog meeting requests in the absence of an application. We know these dogs very well because they are in foster care, so please read the profiles of the dog(s) you are interested prior to submitting. If there are specific requirements stated (ie: Fenced Yard or Canine Friend Required) these are included because they are vital to the happiness, health and safety of that dog.
We are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (https://anewchancear.org/foster/faqs/) and resources for. We provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying/neutering, and microchipping before transporting our dogs. Then, we provide all supplies, preventatives and any follow up vet care necessary while they are in foster care. These costs are high and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources, so if you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (https://anewchancear.org/help/donate/). We are a 501c3 organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. It is only through the kindness of supporters like you that we are 'changing lives...one tail at a time' by providing our dogs with 'A New Chance.' (https://anewchancear.org)
