Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi friends! My name's Sadie! I'm a middle aged, 22 lb. Chihuahua-Australian Shepherd mix. I'd be the perfect best friend for someone looking for a fellow couch potato to hang out with! I do enjoy going outside for a bit, but I'd really rather stay by your side.
I'm not really into toys, and although me and the other dogs in my foster home don't really play together, we do get along. I won't fuss about it when you tell me it's time for bed and I'd be happy if you would share your bed with me, but I'm ok in my kennel too, or in my own bed beside yours.
My foster home has a fenced yard, so I haven't had to be on a leash very much. I do have a slight tendency to worm my way out of a doorway, but so far I always listen when my foster tells me to come back. I'm sure I can totally be taught not to do this, though - I'm a very smart girl and I always want to be with people. I'll just leave the room when children visit my foster home, but I need a forever home that doesn't have any kids.
Do I sound like the perfect pup to be your new forever friend? I'd really like to find my forever home and I hope to meet you soon!
If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our application here: http://www.rchsks.org/our-animals/adopt-a-pet/adopting-a-dog. By filling out the application you are not committing yourself to adopting; it's a screening process that must be completed before you meet the dog. Please do this BEFORE calling. Our voicemail is only checked periodically and you can reach us much faster via dog-coordinators@rchsks.org. Thank you!
