Sadie has special requirements and will require her adopter to have a one level home, fenced yard, no small children and no large or energetic dogs.
“Hi, I’m Sadie! I’m an 11-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix searching for a cozy retirement home where I can spend my golden years surrounded by love, warm blankets and good food.
A Little About Me:
I’m mostly blind and hard of hearing, but I don’t let that stop me from following my person everywhere.
I weigh approximately 20lbs and may need a lift now and then, so someone who can carry me is a necessity.
I’m quiet and gentle, but because of my eyesight, I would do best in a one-level home where it’s easy for me to navigate safely.
I have IVDD and take daily medications, but my foster mom keeps me comfortable and happy. Due to my limited mobility, I would not make a good walking partner or being put on a tie-out. I like to follow my person and explore a bit in the yard but I'm more of a couch potato kinda gal.
With that being said, a fenced yard would be best for me at this time so I don’t wander onto unknown places. I do need supervised at all times when I'm outside.
I’m house-trained with frequent potty breaks and do great overnight!
What I’m Hoping For:
A calm, loving home without small children or big, bouncy dogs. I have not had any exposure to cats.
Someone who enjoys having a loyal companion by their side—I’m happiest cuddled on the couch, snoozing, or getting my face scratched.
A family who will cherish me and make sure I’m comfortable for the rest of my journey.
Bonus Info:
Sadie has been in foster care for over 9 months and has made great progress with her health. She qualifies for our LUVS program, which helps cover certain medical costs.
And let’s not forget—Sadie LOVES snacks and will happily be your taste-testing buddy for all the best dog-friendly treats.
Sadie may be a senior, but she’s full of love to give and deserves the softest landing for her golden years. Could you be her perfect person?
Sadie is available for adoption now through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale PA 15144 - KL# 16182
A sponsor has donated to support this senior dog’s adoption. Rather than waiving the adoption fee, you will receive a $200 gift card to a pet store close to you to help cover supplies for your new dog. We want to ensure all dogs are adopted for the right reasons, while still giving adopters meaningful support as they welcome a new family member.
