and enthusiasm for learning. She is a strong, active girl who loves to play but also loves to snuggle and rest. She is a beautiful tri color Border Collie with luxurious fur and gorgeous markings. Sadie is spayed, has an estimated birth date of 04.02.2023, is tall and weighs about 44 pounds. She is friendly, curious, affectionate, active and boisterous; she will make someone a perfect companion. Sadie loves meeting and playing with dogs. She attended day care and in her current foster home lives with two Border Collies. She does exhibit herding instincts with one of the dogs. Sadie does well in a crate but is trusted now and not crated (although only allowed access to limited areas when no human supervision). She is an incredibly easy house dog who loves going outside, even in the cold, snowy weather, playing in the fenced yard, running on the golf course or just walking. She sometimes forgets to look where she is running, so be careful! Sadie will benefit from and requires training for basic commands (although she loves to sit for treats), walking on a leash, recall. Her food motivation is high and training should be easy. She is very attracted to squirrels and deer and will pull on her leash or bark when she sees them. Sadie is a smart girl and is learning how to listen to direct her attention away from distractions. She rides well in the car, absolutely loves being brushed, allows handling when being wiped off with a towel or getting dressed in her winter jacket. She has never tried to jump the yard fence, but a fence would be required because she is not yet trained off leash. Sadie would do best as a single dog with access to other dog playmates or with another playful dog since she can be annoying with an older or less playful dog. Sadie is an amazing girl who deserves lots of love, hugs, training and patience She was surrendered to CBBCR and is being fostered in Long Beach IN. Please contact anitaremijasgmail if you have any questions about Sadie.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
