About Me
I’m Sadie — a classic schnauzer with a terrier’s heart, a sharp mind, and just the right amount of bossy charm. Sweet? Occasionally. Snarky? Absolutely. I’m loyal, observant, and committed to keeping my world in order.

And let’s be clear: I am very passionate about being a terrier. I’d thrive in a terrier‑savvy home that appreciates my confidence, my opinions, and my delightful stubborn streak.

Valentine Vibes
Good with dogs
No cats
Best with kids over 12
Loyal and steady — the kind of girl who sticks by your side through every high and low
Mildly snarky — I’ll side‑eye your choices, but I’ll still love you
Bossy in the best way — I like things just so, and I’ll help you keep life running smoothly

My Wishlist
A terrier‑experienced home that understands my passion for structure and routine
Humans who appreciate wit, confidence, and personality
A cozy couch where I can curl up after a day of supervising my kingdom

Fun Facts
believe everything has a “correct” place — and I’ll politely inform you when it’s not there
I take my role as household supervisor seriously
I may be small, but my personality is Valentine‑level big

If you’re ready for a February filled with charm, snark, and a schnauzer‑terrier queen who knows exactly who she is, I’m your girl.
