Meet Sage!
A spirited four-year-old German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and American Pitbull Terrier mix currently living in Vallejo, CA, whose essence is a glowing blend of intelligence, affection, and playful charm wrapped in a tan coat with white accents and striking dark facial markings.
Sage is a loyal, medium-sized companion at 44 pounds who thrives on connection, cuddles, and adventure! She’s a great communicator—whether she’s ready for a walk, asking for a tummy rub, or signaling it’s mealtime, Sage knows how to make herself understood with heart-melting charm. She’s incredibly smart and has already mastered sit, down, and up, eager to show off her skills to win a smile (or a treat!). Her days are happiest when they include plenty of sniff-filled strolls, playful bone-hiding missions, and time curled up close to her people.
Sage is house-trained, non-destructive, and generally calm when left alone—though she’ll be happiest with someone who’s around often, as she experiences mild separation anxiety and much prefers a cozy bed to a crate. She absolutely lights up around young children and has a gentle, affectionate nature that makes her a fantastic playmate!
When it comes to other dogs, Sage is selective. While she enjoys doggy day care and has made some canine friends, she tends to mirror the energy of other dogs and has had a few scuffles, mostly while on a leash. Her reactive moments appear tied to certain high-energy or intense dog encounters, particularly when she's feeling restrained. Because of this, Sage would thrive with a calm, dog-savvy guardian who can manage these interactions thoughtfully—or in a home where she can be the only pup and enjoy the spotlight all to herself. She's not a fan of cats and would do best in a feline-free environment.
With her expressive eyes, warm cuddles, and joyful spirit, Sage is ready to bring laughter, loyalty, and love into a new family’s life. She’d flourish in a home with a fenced yard and plenty of time to share with her people.
We’re also including a month of professional behavioral support to help Sage settle into her next chapter with ease and reassurance.
