Sadie Jane is a MOM!!!






Meet our Sadie Jane....she is a beautiful young girl, a little over one year old...far too young to have puppies, but she gave birth to NINE lovely little bundles of joy...all by herself. You see, Sadie Jane and her litter were found in a house AFTER the people (her former owners, probably...)had moved out!


The shelter staff were so worried about Sadie and her litter in the shelter...the noisy environment is definitely not a good place for babies, plus most shelters do not have the resources (staff, space, funds....) to care for mommas and their litters....therefore, they are often euthanized. But Rocket Dog Rescue could not bear to see them destroyed and stepped up to help this poor family.

Transport was arranged to the Bay Area, but Rocket Dog Rescue needed to shuffle dogs into new placements to make room. A wonderful rescuer named jane and her husband Greg offered refuge to "Sadie" until she could be brought to a Rocket Dog foster home. That is why Sadie now has the "Jane" added to her name...we are so grateful to Jane for taking in this momma in need!


Sadie is busy with caring for her babies...she and the babies will be ready to meet new people in late Nov. /Thanksgiving... She is about 16 lbs and has short legs and a long silky coat (black and white with occasional spots). She is not fearful, definitely likes people (adults and kids) and other dogs.

Sorry, we do not know about cats at this time......

  1. Hello,

    I'm curious to know if Sadi Jane is up for adoption. Once we finally pay our *$900.00* pet deposit over the next few weeks we'll be looking to adopt.

    Thanks and thanks for the work you do,

    Fresh!
