ABOUT ME: See this white paw? People say it looks like a glove, and I use it to say hello to basically everyone on the sidewalk. Strangers tell me I made their day, which honestly tracks. I’m young, goofy, and smart enough to learn fast, though I’ll negotiate a little first. Big dogs are my favorite playmates, Kongs are my favorite snack delivery system, and the leash and I are still working things out.
MY FOSTER SAYS: “Everyone loves her one white paw. A lot of people say it looks like a glove. She has gone up to multiple people who have said to me ‘That just made my day’ after she said hi.”

Sara CLAWs came into rescue in Alabama as an older puppy along with her brother; her full history is unknown. She traveled north in late September 2026 and spent a couple of weeks boarding outside the city before moving into a foster home.

Sara CLAWs has a signature accessory: one white paw that strangers keep comparing to a glove. She puts it to good use, marching up to people on the sidewalk to say hello, and more than one has told her foster the greeting made their day. She’s a young, goofy, inquisitive pup who already has a neighborhood fan club.
Early signs point to a smart, trainable girl. Right now she reads as high energy, which is likely her age talking; she’s expected to mellow into a moderate-to-active adult. She has a stubborn streak when she has ideas of her own, and she’s strong for her size, once spotted carrying a ten-pound dumbbell around like a chew toy. She’ll do best with an adopter ready for daily exercise and outdoor exploring.
People are her thing. She’s affectionate with everyone, generous with the licks, and still learning to keep four paws on the floor. She hasn’t lived with kids but has been comfortable with kids of all ages she’s met. School-age kids and older are expected to be a good fit; younger kids are still to be determined, mostly because of her energy. Other dogs are a highlight. She loves to wrestle and play, especially with medium and large dogs, though she can get overexcited mid-play. Cats are unknown.
She’s house trained and does well in her crate with a treat. She knows sit, off, and leave it, and has strung together a little routine of sit, paw, and lie down. Leash pulling is improving, and she’s working on leaving sidewalk snacks alone. Hard chews keep her busy, and a stuffed Kong is a guaranteed hit.
For anyone who wants a bright, social young dog to train, walk, and show off around the block: the glove comes standard. -
The dogs in our care are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed or neutered (when old enough), microchipped, and given a general health check. Immediate medical needs and medical history will be addressed with the adopter prior to adoption. Complete vet records will be sent shortly after adoption.
