Meet Sascha

Some great notes from Sascha's foster:`Sascha is the sweetest, friendliest pup! She greets new people with a tail wag and usually a head tilt. She loves pets and belly rubs, and just wants to hang out around her humans! She's queen of the head tilt! If you say any of her buzz words she gives you an immediate tilt and a wag. She's as sweet as can be & is a volunteer/staff favorite. She enjoys being outside, sniffing, going for short walks but she's perfectly content laying, sleeping and when she's in the mood chewing a ball on her bed. She's very calm and chill, as you'd expect a senior lady to be. Sascha is potty trained an has never had one accident in the home! If she has the need & you're laying down, she'll gently whine & go lay down & wait. She's the most well behaved, well trained dog we've ever had. We've left her home alone to go to the movies and she just napped on the couch the entire time, with Kitchen Nightmares on for background sound. She's quiet 95% of the time. Even when she makes a whine, she keeps those quiet, too & will usually give you one or two then go lay down. Sascha is excellent on the leash! She was coded as `Green` in the shelter, which for those who don't know means she is easy to leash, doesn't excessively pull & us easy to get back home/into the kennel. She'll sit to be leashed (sure, she gets a little excited and does some wiggling first) & she'll pull a little if there's something she reaaaally wants to sniff at, but for the most part, she's the easiest we've had. When passing dogs bark at her she just observes and keeping walking. She's never barked back or shown any strong reaction to a dog in her vicinity. She's the only animal in our house, so we don't know how she does in close proximity. She does seem to want to chase cats on walks, but if we talk to her & ask her to leave it & stay close, she'll do as we ask! Sascha is a volunteer/ staff favorite for a reason! She looooves people! Aside from naps and tennis balls, it's probably her favorite thing. She wants to meet new people and will watch them out in public. She'll walk right up to strangers if she's allowed to & lean in for pets. Hands down the sweetest and friendliest lady we've ever had the privilege of spending time with. Based on how much she enjoys to nap and chilI, could see Sascha with someone who values the unconditional love and friendship of a sweetheart such as herself that's down to be a couch potato and isn't looking for a high-energy hiking buddy!`
