Sadie - Hound Dog for Adoption in Rockville, Maryland

ADOPT Sadie!!
This 48lbs 4-year-old bundle of love steals the hearts of everyone she meets with her warm soulful caramel eyes. She greets everyone like a long-lost best friend: a full-body hug and a big smooch. Some may say she needs to work on her manners. But all agree that her affectionate enthusiasm doesn’t need any work. Once the hellos are over, she’s ready to curl up beside you and snuggle for as long as you’ll let her. If you need a couch buddy, a movie-night partner, or a warm friend after a long day, Sadie is applying for the job.

Not only is she affectionate and sweet, Sadie is wicked smart too. She is a social learner and after watching her canine foster brother use the dog door exactly once, thought it over, and decided, “I can do that.” She’s been strolling in and out like she invented it ever since.

Some practical stats about Sadie:
* 100% Potty trained. No accidents, no worries.
* Crate-trained. She’s comfortable and settled in her own space.
* Great on a leash. Walks are a pleasure, not a tug-of-war.
* Dog-door certified. Self-taught, of course.
* Kid and dog friendly. No info on cats but does seem to have a prey drive.

On sunny days you’ll find Sadie stretched out on the deck, soaking up the warmth and surveying her kingdom like the queen she is. Sadie would love nothing more than a yard or a sunny spot of her own to keep an eye on, and a person to come home to at the end of the day. Sadie is ready to commit to a happily ever after with her forever humans. Are you ready for her?
