sadie

At just 10 months old, Sadie is currently rocking the classic “all legs, giant feet, and no idea where her body ends” teenage phase. She’s a gangly Labrador goofball who seems to be growing faster than she can keep up with, and honestly? It’s adorable.The noisy shelter kennels are a little overwhelming for her, so she can seem shy at first in all the chaos. But once she gets away from the barking crowd, she relaxes and walks much better—like a teenager finally escaping a crowded school hallway.Outside is where Sadie truly shines. She loves zooming around with toys proudly carried in her mouth like prized treasures, splashing in the wading pool, and generally behaving like life is the greatest party she’s ever attended. She’s playful, exuberant, and 100% still a puppy.Sadie will need some basic training and guidance as she grows up, but she’s treat motivated, takes treats gently, and seems very willing to work for snacks. She’s friendly with people and leans right in for affection once she feels comfortable. She can be a little shy in new situations or with new people at first, but her sweet personality comes through quickly.She came in with another dog who has already been adopted, and Sadie seems dog friendly with multiple dogs here as well. A meet-and-greet is recommended to help ensure everyone is a good fit.If you’re looking for a lovable teenage Lab with oversized paws, pool party enthusiasm, and endless goofy energy, Sadie is ready to make your house a whole lot more entertaining.
