Sadie in NH(sponsored!)

SADIE IN NH - A DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH***adoption fee is sponsored***

Sadie is a beautiful, sensitive soul who's looking for a very special home. Around 3 years old, Sadie has had a tough start in life and is naturally shy and wary of strangers. She can be standoffish and will growl or snap if she feels her boundaries aren't respected - she needs a family who truly understands that trust is earned, not demanded.

Once Sadie knows you're safe, her real personality shines through: she's playful, smart, and absolutely loves her toys. Toss her a squeaky toy and you'll see her inner puppy come to life! She'll happily entertain herself or invite you to join her playtime once she feels secure.

Sadie will thrive in a quiet, patient, adult-only home with people experienced in giving shy dogs the space and time they need to come around. She'll do best as the only pet, or with a calm, respectful male larger canine companion after a proper introduction.

Sadie isn't the dog for everyone - but for the right person, she'll be a deeply rewarding friend. If you believe in second chances and know how to let a dog set the pace, Sadie might just be waiting for you.

Before applying be sure you have thoroughly researched Great Pyrenees. They can be stubborn, prone to barking, overly protective and cannot be off leash. You WILL NOT train a pyr to boundaries.

Please be sure all family members are in agreement to adopting and your family is ready to bring dog home now.

Applicants must be at least 21 years old. We do not have blanket criteria regarding adoptions. Each applicant is considered based on many things including but not limited to breed experience, yard ( visible fence preferred) and other animals in home. We try to avoid dogs with same sex households as pyrs typically do not do well with the same sex.

A volunteer will be in touch to discuss your application and the dog to determine if it is a good match. Your vet and two references will be called. A virtual home visit done. Once approved a meet and greet at the farm will take place. If all are in agreement and the animal has received its NH health certificate an adoption contract will be signed and adoption fee paid. Adoption fees for dogs are $500. for adults over 12 months, $600 for puppies 12 months and younger. Fees for seniors, special needs or harder to place dogs will be determined by our Board of Directors. All dogs will be altered when adoption is finalized. This may involve young puppies be given until a certain age to be altered. All animals are up to date on age appropriate core vaccines, negative for parasites, heart worm and lyme tested if 6 months or older, microchipped and have a current health certificate. Proof of a basic obedience course completed is part of our adoption contract within six months.

Our descriptions are based on shelter evaluations, input from foster homes and interactions with our volunteers but are in no way a guarantee of temperment.
