About Sadie

Sadie is a playful and energetic young girl with a gentle heart. She can be a little cautious when meeting new people, but with patience and kind affection, she quickly begins to relax and show her sweet personality. She loves to run, play, and especially enjoys hugs and cuddles once she feels safe. Sadie is joyful, loving, and full of energy. She is Balu’s sister, and they share the same rescue story. In October 2024, they were found abandoned along with their siblings in a planter outside a school. They were very young and crying when they were rescued. Since then, Sadie has been waiting for her chance to experience life in a loving home. It's essential to recognize that our dogs may have experienced trauma before arriving at ADAC. As a result, they may require an adjustment period in a foster or permanent home. Patience and understanding are absolutely crucial when dealing with rescued dogs.

Ideal Home

A home with a fenced backyard and an active family that enjoys outdoor activities. Families with a real intention to rescue a dog and an open conscience about the needs of rescued street animals.

Ongoing Health

Sadie has been spayed/neutered, vaccinated with DHPPI and Rabies, and received Bordetella. She has been dewormed, microchipped, and tested for 4DX and heartworm. She is on monthly preventive protection with Nexgard Spectra.

Training & Support

Sadie is not house-trained. Rescued dogs may have fears and anxieties due to past experiences and need time to adapt to new environments and people. Patience and understanding can help build trust and strengthen the bond between the dog and their new owner. Families with experience in dog behavior and training, or a willingness to hire a trainer, are preferred. High tolerance and patience are also important.
