Sadie is SAFE! Proof of the Power of the "Post"

Sadie is going HOME!

If you've been reading my blog for a while, or if you read Houndsgood, you're familiar with Sadie's story.

She had been dumped at Heard County Animal Control, a very small, rural shelter in Franklin, Georgia. Her owners claimed that she had nipped another small dog in the home in a squabble over food. For this, Sadie was abandoned and labeled as "dog-aggressive." Heard Co. AC does everything in its power to place pets before they are forced to euthanize for space, but things weren't looking good for Sadie. After a couple weeks at the pound, no one had expressed any interest in her, despite everyone's efforts.

Chris at Houndsgood has been keeping the blogging world updated on her story. After a week or so at the pound, it was apparent that Sadie didn't have dog aggression issues. Most likely, her previous owner blew the incident way out of proportion. Yet, Sadie still had no place to go and she was long past her "times up" date.

Amazingly, one of Chris's readers has stepped up and offered to adopt Sadie!!! She is going to a happy new life! Congrats Sadie!!

This story is TRULY a testament to the power of the internet. I've seen it happen several times now! Simply posting the photo and story about a pet in need on your site can indeed save lives!

Please Spread the Word and Help Sadie Find a Home

It was her eyes that got me...

Sadie
needs a little extra love and patience. Do you have room in your heart and home for Sadie?

Sadie has a sad story...she really deserves a new home. Please stop by Houndsgood, and read Sadie's story.

Sadie is located at Heard County Animal Control, located in Franklin, Georgia.

***UPDATE 2/20***
Chris at Houndsgood has posted an update on Sadie.

The bad news is that she is still waiting for someone special to come save her and her time is running out.

The good news is that her supposed "dog aggression" issue might not be as serious as previously thought. She is currently housed with a canine roommate, and they get along just fine.

Heard County Animal Control
DOES do out-of-state adoptions, so even if you are not located in Georgia, you can adopt Sadie!
