Sasha is a beautiful 5-year old female Shepherd mix who was brought to the HSOV on April 24, 2023 and placed in an outside kennel. We believe that she was likely left in our care by her owner (or someone who was familiar with her) since there was a note left with her which gave a bit of information about Sasha.
Sasha has a brown/dark tan short smooth coat with white/cream markings on her chest, a long tail, and a lovely face with dark brown eyes, black shading on her muzzle, and large erect ears.
The note with Sasha which listed her name and age also had a short sentence saying that she was good with people .. but that she was not good with small dogs or cats.
Thanks to HSOV Humane Officer Fredley Tynan for treating Sasha to some fresh air and extra TLC when she enjoyed her '15-minutes of fame' while she had her glamour photos taken.
Sasha weighs 49.4 lbs.
In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Sasha was held for three days to give her family (if she was actually a stray) the opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership.
Since Sasha was not reclaimed, she was spayed on June 20, 2023 and was also given rabies vaccine.
Sasha has participated in several off-site events recently and has been a terrific goodwill ambassador for HSOV. Sasha has done well with other dogs (and is especially fond of a senior Shepherd mix named Bear. NOTE: Bear was adopted and went to a great home on December 15, 2023.
UPDATE: Sasha was adopted on January 26, 2024 but came back to HSOV on March 28, 2024 (through really no fault of her own). Her new family reported that Sasha was a bit of an escape artist with athletic ability and was able to climb over the high fence in her new yard .. Unfortunately Sasha went over to an adjoining neighbor a few times (perhaps to introduce herself and to that family and their dog), but her visits were not welcomed. So for her own protection, her heartbroken adopter decided that she loved Sasha so much that she was willing to part with her in hopes that she would find a more perfect home.
Sasha is housebroken. This little sweetheart is good with children as well as other dogs.
