Meet Saige! 4 mos./5 lb./Female/Porkie (Pug/Yorkie Mix) Name: Saige Age: 4 months Weight: 5 lbs Breed: Porkie (Pug / Yorkie Mix) Status: Petite sweetheart seeking forever cuddle buddy 💕 About Me: Hi, I’m Saige — delicate, darling, and full of gentle love. I’m a tiny girl with a calm, affectionate nature and a talent for melting into your arms like I was made to be there (because I probably was). I’m still a puppy, learning about the world one cozy moment at a time, but I already know my favorite things: soft blankets, being held close, and quiet quality time with my people.

Story
This Fiona is not locked in the highest room of the tallest tower, nor does she have a dragon to keep away hopeful rescuers. She DOES have a massive love of butt scratches, a cute underbite, and a habit of making happy little grunts while interacting with humans.Fiona is deaf, but donâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t let that fool youâ&#194&#128&#194&#148sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s incredibly observant, expressive, and deeply connected to her people. She communicates beautifully through eye contact, body language, and she thrives with kind, patient humans who are willing to meet her where she is.OTHER PETS: Fiona is comfortable and relaxed greeting other dogs and then either continues interacting in the same way or becomes disinterested and goes off to do her own thing. Fiona would likely get along with most social dogs, and should meet any dog she would be living with prior to adoption.[Likely (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: [First Dog] Experience with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn. KIDS: Fiona is comfortable with most handling and has not exhibited resource-guarding while at TJO; she does nudge with her muzzle to get attention and is a mouth breather while playing so she may not be a good fit for very small humans or humans with very thin skin. Fiona would not be phased by the loudness of an active household as she is presenting as deaf but care should be taken to ensure she is not startled awake from sleep. [7+ (Must Meet First)] ACTIVITY LEVEL: Fiona enjoys a good nap, no matter what time of day it is or how recently she woke from her last nap. She does enjoy exploring outside, still gets playful, and has the zoomies occasionally - just with more napping in between. Fiona would not be opposed to walks, but careful attention should be paid so ensure she does not over exert herself. Moderate regular exercise combined with mental enrichment will help meet her needs. [Couch Potato] VETERINARY CARE: Fiona is an aging dog with a mammary mass who will need a good relationship with a vet to ensure that she gets the medical care she needs to enjoy her golden years. She is also currently looking to lose a few pounds, and has some allergy-related ear inflammation that should be able to be resolved with her prescribed medications. [Above Average] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Fiona bond with her new owner while learning new skills and maybe some fun tricks, as well as building confidence.

Story
THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN A FOSTER HOME WITHIN A REASONABLE DISTANCE OF OUR KENNEL IN WOBURN, MA. ONCE A POTENTIAL ADOPTER IS MATCHED WITH A DOG AND GOES THROUGH OUR REFERENCE AND INTERVIEW PROCESS WITH AN ADOPTION COORDINATOR THIS DOG WOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR YOU TO MEET BEFORE ADOPTION. IT IS OUR GOAL TO GET ALL LOCAL DOGS TO THEIR FOREVER FAMILIES WITHIN 7 DAYS ONCE MATCHED. **Please read Mixie Moon's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Meet Mixie Moon - a 9 month old, Pug mix, who weighs about 30 pounds (as of 1/12/25). The MOON pups were surrendered to us in Tennessee and are all happy, healthy and ready to find their forever families! Her foster shares: "Mixie is a joyful pup who sees every day as an adventure! She has a curious nature, a wagging tail that rarely stops, and a way of making the world brighter just by being in it. Mixie has a soft, sweet gaze that makes you feel instantly loved, and she’s always ready to join in whatever fun is happening. This little ray of sunshine is waiting to bring endless smiles to her forever home!" All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be. To adopt or learn more about Mixie Moon, you must fill out an adoption application. To find the application, copy and paste this URL into your browser: WWW.GDRNE.COM/ADOPTION-APPLICATION [Adoption Fee: $495] ** PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted. To learn more about our *shelterless* rescue, adoption fees, and procedures, review the list of Frequently Asked Questions on our website at WWW.GDRNE.COM.
