SadieBug

After Papi moved to his super-awesome forever home, I had a 12-pound hole in my heart. This message was posted on  SA ROCKS Facebook page, so I talked to the Musician. “I think that having a short-term foster would help me heal. Give me the reminder why we foster. And remind me not to get too attached because they all leave, eventually.” He agreed and we picked up Sadie for a few days.





Sadie was probably the easiest foster dog we have ever had. She is about 7-years-old and very mellow … not like high-energy Papi. She is very smart and knows her doggie door and where to do her “doodie” without ever being told. My girls didn’t really mind her. They weren’t particularly put-out having her there, but didn’t play with her either. She didn’t really have interest in playing with them so no problem. Rumor is she gets along famously with cats and children and I believe it. She’s just really easy. Her favorite things to do are:
Eat

Cuddle on your lap

Play with toys

She loves her toys. It was fun to watch her root around in the toy box and select a toy for the moment. After a bit of shredding action, back to the toy box to see what else she could find to tear apart.

After about a week, she returned to her regular foster home and was a total wiggle worm of excitement to see them. She was adopted shortly thereafter, but sadly, it didn’t work out. I’m not entirely sure why. She just didn’t bond with the family who has a toddler, another dog, and a baby on the way. I think it was too much stress for the family bringing in another dog … any dog. Timing wasn’t right, but that means Sadie is still looking for furever.  It isn’t over until the Fat Sadie sings. You can learn more about her on Sadie's Facebook page or at SA ROCKS. And, if you are ready to give her a furever home, then you can apply to adopt here here
