Ideal Home / Adopter
Sage would love an active family since he’s still a young dog with energy to burn. After a good play session, he’s happy to curl up for a cuddle and nap. A home with a fenced yard for rounds of fetch would be perfect.
Likes
Sage enjoys playing fetch and tug with his toys and thrives on interactive play. He loves roughhousing with other dogs, so an active dog sibling would likely be a great match. His favorite treats include peanut butter kongs and deli turkey. When it’s time to rest, he’s happy to snuggle up in your bed or sleep on a dog bed in your room.
Dislikes
Sage is still learning that young kids aren’t his puppy playmates, so he can be a bit mouthy when trying to initiate play. He’s also unsure about going up or down stairs and may need a little help until he gains confidence.
Sage has the most incredible webbed front paws that make him special. He may love to swim one day! He also leans right in for a hug when offered and can have a very calming presence about him.
