Story
Meet Cassie! With her dainty face and signature curly tail. She is a fearless explorer, always the first to venture into a new room, investigate the kennel exit, or tackle the stairs while her sister waits for the "all clear."
Cassie is a beautiful St. Bernard/Great Pyrenees mix who is as brilliant as she is sweet. She is already proving to be a star student; she’s very food-motivated and has quickly learned to "come" when called—partly because she loves a tasty treat, but mostly because she never wants to be too far from her humans. She is at her happiest when she is being held like a baby and showered with pets (though her future family should enjoy this now while she still fits in their arms!).
When it comes to play, instead of typical puppy nipping, she gives the most adorable little "nibbles" and nuzzles. She is an expert at finding a toy to carry around, using it to entice her sister into a game of chase! While she is brave with new spaces, she is submissive and polite when meeting new dogs. She has enjoyed playing with our 50lb resident dog, though she prefers a gentle pace over high-speed zoomies.
Once playtime is over, Cassie loves to stay in contact, often curling up right next to you to make sure she’s touching you while she naps. If you’re looking for a smart, adventurous, and deeply affectionate companion, Cassie is ready for her next big adventure with you.
Note for her forever family:
While Cassie is currently the "little" sister, she will still be a very large dog! Be ready for the shedding, drool, and space needs that come with the territory of these giant breeds. A securely fenced-in yard is highly recommended to keep these natural patrollers safe. Cassie is in a heavy teething phase and requires a wide variety of sturdy toys to redirect her curiosity.
If you have room in your heart (and your house) for a loyal, adventurous, and tender-hearted giant, Cassie is ready to meet you!
Cassie is estimated to be 11 weeks old and 12 lbs. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested.
If you are interested in meeting this dog please complete the adoption application on our website at https://safehandsrescue.org/adoption-process/ and then we can contact you about setting up a meeting.
