About Sage

Sage is a confident and chaotic young pup with a mischievous sparkle in her eye and a heart full of playful plans. Equal parts wild child and cuddle bug, she finds joy in shredding paper towels, chasing her own tail, and bribing her foster siblings into wrestling matches. Despite a difficult start, Sage has blossomed into a sweet, affectionate companion who loves to snuggle in bed with her foster mom and canine friends. She's a water dog at heart, always eager to splash in creeks and encourage others to join her.

As an American Pit Bull Terrier, Sage is intelligent, energetic, and loyal, thriving on routine and positive reinforcement training. She requires consistent guidance and mental stimulation through puzzle toys and new tricks to channel her high energy constructively. Early socialization is crucial for her to build confidence with new experiences. Her breed traits suggest a moderate grooming need for her short coat and moderate shedding, but her energy and exercise requirements are high, needing plenty of activity to stay happy and well-behaved.

Sage is looking for a special home committed to continued training and structure, ideally with a playful, high-energy dog buddy to wrestle, nap, and learn from. She thrives on interaction and requires a physically fenced yard of 4 feet or higher for safe play. Sage is good with dogs and cats, friendly with new people, and will be spayed prior to adoption. Her ideal family will appreciate her spirited personality and provide the love, patience, and activity she needs to be their unforgettable heart dog.
