****ADOPTION APPLICATION HERE*** Meet Sara! This little lab/collie girl is the friend of everyone she meets. She is so sweet and fun loving and is such a happy little puppy. She adapts well to all situations and loves to play but also wants to cuddle. Sara weighs 8 pounds and is 13 weeks old and is looking for her forever family . To find out more information on this dog please apply to adopt on our website at www.caretx.org/adopt and CARE will be in touch with you ASAP! This dog was rescued from a kill shelter or the streets and has been evaluated for medical and temperament to prepare for a forever home and is in a foster home in San Antonio, Texas* and is ready to fly to its final destination once adopted. The adoption fee of $995 covers age appropriate vaccinations, health certificate, micro chip, the kennel it travels in, and air transport. * CARE rescue is in San Antonio, TX where we have a serious pet overpopulation situation. CARE is a non profit 501c3 rescue that has been saving lives for 14 years and with your adoption, we can help save even more deserving urgent adoptable pets! We fly our pets to approved adopters all over the US, especially in low kill and no kill markets where there is a demand for rescue pets!

Story
Meet this sweet little bundle of love! 🐾 She's becoming more and more cuddly by the day and would thrive in a home with middle school-aged kids or older who can give her the attention she craves. She's an absolute people pup—while toys are fun, she prefers playing with you! So a family that can spend lots of time with her would be her dream come true. She’s also dog-friendly and loves having a furry buddy to hang out with. Training? Well, she's got a bit of a stubborn streak, so things move a little slower—but with patience and love, she’s sure to get there. When she’s not playing or learning, she’s following you around like a shadow, hoping for a scratch or a snuggle. And if she happens to get a little correction from you or the cats, she’ll melt your heart by sulking and hiding her face in your arm—it’s adorable! If you're looking for a sweet, playful, and affectionate companion who will love you with all her heart, she's your girl! 🐶💖
