Sadie is a very special pup who will need a very special owner. She is a 3-year-old female, boxer mix who was surrendered to the shelter in June. She is a very sweet and strong girl. She would need an owner who is willing to be patient with her and work with her to gain her trust. She’s short and stocky and has a ton of energy. She loves to run around outside and will sit for treats. She is also housetrained and has already been spayed. Her perfect home would be quiet and cozy with her being the only animal and an owner with an understanding of dogs and willingness to love and train her. To visit Sadie, stop by the Humane Society of Rome, 6247 Lamphear Road, call 315-336-7070 or go to www.humanesocietyrome.com.
