Meet Sashia Sorbet, an adorable 4-month-old Basset Hound mix with a sweet personality, a gentle nature, and possibly the floppiest, softest ears you’ll ever have the pleasure of petting. Those ears are impossible to ignore. They flop alongside her little face as she explores, plays, and goes about her very important puppy business, and they somehow make an already adorable puppy even more irresistible. Sashia is enjoying all the things a puppy her age should: playing, discovering new things, chewing on her favorite toys, collecting treats whenever possible, and taking plenty of naps in between. She especially enjoys her chew toys and is more than happy to settle in and keep herself occupied with one. She also has a wonderfully gentle side. Sashia isn’t a mouthy puppy and takes treats nicely, which makes interacting with her especially sweet. She still has all the fun and curiosity you expect from a four-month-old puppy, but she approaches people with a softer touch. Sashia could fit beautifully into many different types of families. She would likely enjoy sharing her home with other friendly dogs and could make a wonderful companion for children. Growing up with canine friends would give her built-in playmates, nap buddies, and a few experienced dogs to help teach her the ropes as she continues figuring out the world. Cats are still a bit of a mystery. Sashia has met them, but at four months old she hasn’t quite decided what role these strange little creatures are supposed to play in her life. Friend? Foe? Weird roommate who jumps on furniture? Sashia is still gathering evidence. With appropriate introductions and supervision, she may be able to live happily with feline family members as she grows. Like any young puppy, Sashia is still learning. Her forever family will get to be part of teaching her all the important things that come with growing into a wonderful adult dog — routines, manners, new experiences, and which household items are definitely not chew toys. In return, Sashia brings plenty to the table already: a gentle personality, puppy playfulness, a love for treats, excellent napping skills, and two spectacularly soft floppy ears. If you’re ready for puppy adventures, chew toys scattered around the house, plenty of naps, and a sweet little companion to grow alongside your family, Sashia Sorbet is ready to meet you. Questions?
