I'm ready for my new family!

Meet Sage — The Gentle Protector With a Heart of Gold

Sage is a stunning 2-year-old Black and Tan Hound with a sweet soul and an old-soul wisdom that wins hearts instantly. Once severely underweight from neglect, Sage has now gained nearly 25 pounds, rediscovered joy, and blossomed into the calm, loving girl she was always meant to be. She is healthy, thriving, and ready for a forever family to call her own.

Sage’s Personality:

1.  Calm, steady, and incredibly affectionate
2. Friendly with men, women, kids, and other dogs
3. Confident, well-mannered, and comfortable in new places
4. Loves snuggling, relaxing, and just being near her people
5. A true “gentle gem” in the home

In the Home: Sage is wonderfully easygoing. She’s house-trained, crate-trained, walks beautifully on leash, and enjoys curling up in bed for snuggles. She loves her toys, especially chew toys and balls, and she’s happiest when she has both a comfy spot and a human to love on. She has no destructive habits, just a soft heart and a calm spirit.

What She Loves:

1. Running and playing in a yard
2. Balls, bones, and quiet play
3. Hiking on a long leash through the woods
4. Snuggling and being close to her favorite people

Best Home for Sage: Sage can fit into almost any home, from a relaxed household to an active one. She truly adjusts to the people she loves. She enjoys playtime and exploring outdoors, but she also adores curling up for naps and being a loyal companion.

Her Foster Says: “If I didn’t already have three dogs, Sage would stay with me. She’s perfect. She watched over Willow, the little yellow Lab who was starved with her. Sage is a protector. Whoever adopts her will gain a best friend for life.”

Why You’ll Love Her: Sage isn’t just a dog, she’s a devoted friend, a calm presence, and a loyal companion who gives her whole heart. She survived hardship with grace and love, and now she’s ready to start the next chapter with a family who sees how truly special she is.
