Sage is a 5-year-old Pitbull in Lacey , WA, who needs $2,000 for ACL repair.

My best friend's dog had puppies. Sage was the only pup who hadn't been spoken for so I took her in. I instantly felt connected to her. I was in an abusive relationship years ago. My abuser attempted to come into my bedroom with a gun. Sage barked, alerting me and scaring him away. I am forever grateful to her and feel I owe her my life.

Sage loves to swim, watch movies, go on hikes, and nap with my toddler. She also likes car rides, eating pork, and going to petsmart. She likes to fall asleep on my chest. She likes to be tucked in with a blanket like a little baby. She enjoys being pampered and getting baths. Before her injury she also enjoyed going for runs.

Sage has undergone many medical procedures. She had cancer when she was 1. She has been the victim of dog attacks which required several surgeries. She also had a tumor removed. Her medical care has added up to an unmanageable amount

Currently she has a torn ACL. She needs surgery as soon as possible so she can walk and prevent further injury to her other leg. We have received a diagnosis but are in the process of choosing a surgeon/facility we feel comfortable with. I will update the name of the veterinarian as soon as possible.

Sage is an amazing singer. She likes to sing along to Adele. She likes to go in my purse and bring me presents (cough drops, tampons, etc). She's amazing with my toddler. They love playing in the hose together. She is just a ball of love. She's hijacked many of my bubble baths. She also likes to roll down big hills
