Adoption pending! Little Sadie Mae is all of 10 months old. She recently arrived from New Mexico and was removed from a hoarding/breeding situation. Sadie Mae was not well socialized and is very timid and shy. Even the cats in her foster home scare her! The cats are trying really hard to show her they mean no harm as they go up and rub on her to her dismay! Sadie Mae is living with other overly confident Doberman to learn the ropes of living in a home. She is making great strides in her foster home. Sadie Mae will need a fenced yard as she could bolt for the hills if something scares her. She will also need a home with a patient master who is willing to help her overcome her fears, ad is able to socialize her safely to build her confidence. She may also benefit from having a confident canine pal and would love cats in her next home! Sadie Mae is fully vetted.
