Sassy - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Athens, Georgia

Why choose me?

Sassy had been watching me with other dogs and seemed to be hoping I'd take her out, too. She was surrendered with 10 other dogs who are all at different stages of leash walking, so I was happily surprised that Sassy knows how to walk on one. She trotted ahead already enjoying her time outside. Sassy had a lot of exploring to do, but when she joined me, she was super sweet and liked being petted. She also liked treats and took them gently, but she hasn't learned how to sit for them yet. Sassy has adorable ears and one that she often lets fall across the top of her head like a little cap. She's a good-natured dog which is a big plus when you share a home with 10 dogs!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
