Sadie Saves on Sundays



“Hi, it’s me Sadie! Last Sunday, I introduced you to my friend ‘Dingo’ (see his pictures below.) Well, Dingo is still looking for his forever home, and I really need your help getting the word out. Remember what Gandhi once said, ‘You must be the change you wish to see in the world.’ And, since today is Sunday, I need your help in making that change in Dingo’s life. Please share Dingo’s story on social media. 



Dingo says, ‘Don't let my name fool you, I'm actually quite civilized unlike my wild namesake! I’m a small, male, short-coat/mix Chihuahua and I’m 3 years/3 months old.  


 

Would you like a buddy to walk with you everyday? I enjoy going for my walks everyday with my human friends here at the Second Chance Animal Shelter. And, if given the choice I would walk all day! (Though I have to admit the belly rubs after my walks are very enjoyable as well.)  If you’d like more information about me, please contact the Second Chance AnimalShelter and be sure to give them my name along with my ID # 23966446. Hope you’ll come to meet me and we can go for a walk! “’

Beauty tip...

"Rabbit says to rabbit, 'Let me tell you a little secret. I don't know about you, but a bit of  hare gel on the ears works so much better than starch. Just sayin'."'

Temperature Control



“My friend, Maggie says, ‘Ahhh! There’s nothing more comforting than a nice fluffy towel, straight from the dryer, on a cold winter night. Ahhh! Z-z-zzz.“’

Staying in touch…



“Hi, it’s me Sadie here. Communicating with humans is sometimes difficult, until they learn to translate ‘Doglish,’ which is the language that my human companion, Emma developed, with my help (of course.)


Below, you will see ‘Doglish’ in action as many of my canine pals attempt to converse with their humans via Skype. Thanks to CrazyFunnyStuffCFS for capturing these conversations. Love, Sadie.”

No Smoking



“My friend Auggie says, ‘Wadda ya think? Do you think it looks like a cigar? Maybe you should light it for me. Better yet, let’s go out and play fetch!”’

Monday Blues


“My friend Chester says, I hate Mondays. You always work late and I’m left alone all day, and when you come home, you don’t want to play. (Sigh) I just hate Mondays.”’

Sadie Saves on Sundays



“Hi, it’s me Sadie! I totally agree with what Mahatma Gandhi once said, ‘You must be the change you wish to see in the world.’ And, since today is Sunday, I wanted to help to make a change in the life of my friend, ‘Dingo,’ who is looking for his forever family."


"Dingo says, ‘Don't let my name fool you, I'm actually quite civilized unlike my wild namesake! I’m a small, male, short-coat/mix Chihuahua and I’m 3 years/3 months old.

The Staring Contest



“My friend Tiny says, ‘You know, I can stare at you longer without blinking than you can. They taught us how to do that in Canine Kindergarten. It really comes in handy sometimes."'
