🐾Behavior Notes:
Sage is a quiet, gentle senior with a soft, loving nature. Though timid when first approached, her tail never stops wagging for long. She walks with a loose leash, occasionally hesitating at unfamiliar spots, but responds beautifully to baby talk, gentle encouragement, and treats, gaining confidence and even a little pep in her step.
She is very sweet, affectionate, and laid-back. She enjoys leisurely sniffing walks, carefully searching for treats, and is content to curl up on her cozy bed for peaceful naps.
