Sadie 3 yr old spayed female - S. CA

Fee: $250

Sadie loves to play with toys, and is most happy when her person is playing with her!

Here is what Sadie's fostermom says about her: Sadie is a smaller bitch about 22 inches at the shoulder and weighs 54 pounds. Sadie has an outgoing personality, is comfortable around all people and is in good health. She has great food drive and toy drive. Sadie loves to fetch and will constantly bring her toy to be thrown. As much as she loves toys, she does get distracted by things going on around her but is easy to refocus on her toy or tug.

Sadie is very smart and super easy to train. She works very well with positive training methods. She know her basic commands (heel, down, sit, stay, recall) and how to out a toy or tug. We now are working on control, i.e. to down or sit and stay while the toy is thrown. Also, we are working on perfecting her recall. At this point, she can not be trusted off leash. She is potty trained, but should be watched if in a new situation. She currently sleeps and eats in her crate.

Sadie gets along well with other dogs. Initially, she was somewhat reactive with other dogs, but has settled down. I would not trust her with cats or any small animal due to her high prey drive.

I haven't really tested Sadie around children but I feel that she would be fine around older children but may be too active and too high in prey drive for young children. Sadie would be best suited to someone who wants an active dog that loves to play. Sadie will need someone who has the time to play with her and continue her obedience training. Her new owner will also need to be kind but firm and enforce boundaries in a consistent manner. Sadie also loves to run so she will need a home with a large yard and a high fence.
