Meet #Adoptable Sassy & Sara

Meet Sassy and Sara. They are a mother-daughter bonded pair currently residing at Lincoln County Humane Society in Merrill, WI. Sassy is approximately 12 years old and her daughter, Sara, is approximately 6 years old. They were surrendered to the shelter when their owner went into the hospital (likely permanently), so they are looking for a new place to call home. 

I assured them that a lot of people start over in their middle years or even much later on in life and that it’s nothing to be scared of. In fact, many people find their “second lives” even better than their first!

We didn’t get to spend a lot of time together since another winter storm was on its way to our area, but we had a nice little walk around their current neighborhood for some fresh air and a potty break. I’m pretty sure these two are completely house-broken since they took this opportunity to go #1 and #2. Good girls.

I don’t think these girls had a lot of exercise opportunities in their last home, but they seem pretty open to getting a couple daily walks. They would probably be open to more walks if their new person would be willing to work them up to a healthier fitness level slowly. With spring coming, I’m sure it would be a piece of cake to get some additional exercise in the coming months. 

Sassy is a sweet little #sugarface and seems to love attention! Sara is a little shy at first but warms up quickly. Both walked well on leashes, although I did a poor job of keeping us untangled. I was grateful for their slow pace since I had slipped on ice the day before and took a pretty ugly fall. My knee wasn’t up to walking a rambunctious youngster today, so these two were very nice and took it easy on me. Their leisurely pace would be great for someone who prefers easy dogs for walking partners.

  

If you or someone you know is looking for a couple sweet girls for leisurely walks and snuggles on the couch, please let them know Sassy and Sara are waiting to meet you at Lincoln County Humane Society.
