And now a few words from me:

Hello everyone! I’m Sadie, one of the cutest Chiweenies you’ll ever meet…. at least that’s what my foster mother says and she’s never wrong! I love to go for a walk every day unless it’s raining out; rainy weather is best for getting covered with a warm blanket and snoozing. I never miss an opportunity to bask in a sunbeam either. I can be quite vocal when I hear a noise, so I make a perfect alarm system. I’m very happy in my foster home but I really want my very own forever family. Should we meet?

And now a few words from my foster family:

Sadie may be tiny in stature and size, but she has a big attitude! She quickly asserted herself when she arrived in foster care and found her place in the house pack. She can be quite affectionate and cuddly once she gets familiar with her people. She loves walks, backyard explorations and snuggling into a blanket on the sofa or her bed. Her ideal home would have no other dogs as she can be very domineering… Little Miss Bossy Pants!! She has had an occasional accident in the house, but this has lessened with time. She would be the perfect companion for an older person or couple.
