enthusiasm with absolutely zero understanding of boundaries, physics, or your fragile human body.
This 4.5-year-old Catahoula/Aussie mix is what happens when you take pure joy, give it three Red Bulls, and say “go live your truth.” Sarge doesn’t walk into a room—he launches. Think: furry missile. Target: you. Impact zone: wherever he lands. Consent? Implied. Survival? Optional.
Now here’s the plot twist—this absolute chaos goblin is wicked smart. Like, “he could probably do your taxes if he had thumbs” smart. He knows heel, sit, down, stay, look, place, waits at doorways like a polite Victorian gentleman… and then immediately forgets all of that because YOU EXIST and that is simply too exciting to handle. Trainers love him. Volunteers adore him.
Sarge is your dream adventure buddy if your dream includes cardio you didn’t consent to. Hiking? He’s already packed. Long walks? He’s dragging you there. He’s got energy for days and needs a human who can keep up—or at least pretend to while being towed behind him like a kite.
And just when you think he’s all gas, no brakes—surprise! He’s also a stage-five clinger. This 73-pound linebacker will attempt to fold himself into your lap like a delicate little teacup puppy. You will question how this is physically possible. He will not.
Now for the honest fine print: Sarge loves HARD. Like, full-body, airborne, “I will simply become one with you” kind of love. It’s hilarious. It’s endearing. It’s also… a lot. He can be a little “stranger danger” at first—he’s not handing out trust like free samples, but once you’re in? You’re IN. Because of his size, enthusiasm, and tendency to express emotions like a wrecking ball, he’s looking for an adult-only home. And while he’s mingled before, Sarge has decided he’d really prefer to be your one and only—no roommates, no sharing, just him as the main character 24/7.
At the end of the day, Sarge is a wildly lovable, ridiculously funny, brilliantly trained, slightly unhinged best friend who will keep you laughing, moving, and occasionally bracing for impact. He’s not for the faint of heart—but if you can handle the chaos, you’re getting the most loyal, entertaining, larger-than-life companion out there.
Sarge is currently accepting applications for his forever human (and part-time stunt double) at our adoption center in Brewster, NY. Come meet him… and maybe stretch first.
