Sasha

My story

Sasha is a 10-year-old, 55 lb mixed breed we adopted from a rescue in Austin, TX in 2018. Sasha is loyal, sensitive, and loves being close to her people. She LOVES food. “The most food motivated dog I’ve ever worked with” according to 2 separate trainers. In the right environment she is very chill and loves to lay down belly up or in a full sploot! Despite her age, she still loves a good backyard zoomie and a long walk. Since having young kids (3 yr old and 9 month old), her anxiety has increased (growling/resource guarding), so she would do best in a home without small children. We currently keep her separated from the baby but she becomes distressed when isolated from her people. She tolerates other dogs but careful introduction would be needed before rehoming with other dogs. In Nov 2024, she was diagnosed with anal sac adenocarcinoma, the tumor was removed and quarterly follow ups have been clear. We love Sasha deeply and want to find her home to live out her golden years.
