Sasha Sullivan – Mixed Breed

Sasha is a mixed breed and we call her an American Mutt. A DNA test said she is mostly Alaskan Malamute mixed with Australian Cattle Dog on one side of her family. On the other side, they found that one of her great-grandparents was a Bloodhound which is probably where she inherited her gentle Bay when she answers the door to strangers. 

How did you obtain your pet?

We first fell in love when she was 10 weeks old on her Adoptaversary- July 20, 2013, it was love at first sight. She and her brother and sister were rescued by the Mary Ann Morris Animal Society (M.A.M.A.S) in South Carolina and they drove her to Virginia to her new forever home.

How old is your pet?

Sasha turned 8 years old on May 11, 2021.

What is your pet’s favorite pastime?

Chasing sticks, going to the park, taking rides in the car, swimming, cuddling, and sleeping.

What is your pet’s favorite toy?

Sticks, tennis balls, and rope toys. She loves to chase sticks or play tug-of-war with her rope toy. When she’s tired of running, she’ll lay down and shred them into pieces.

What is your favorite thing about your pet?

Her personality and sweet demeanor. She’s the perfect combination of a human, fish, and a comfy blanket. She’s extremely smart and without saying a word, she will tell you exactly what she wants, that’s why her nickname is “Sass”. She loves to swim, but if you tell her the “pool is closed” she’ll try her hardest to stay out of the water unless she’s feeling sassy.

If your pet had a superpower, what would it be?

She’d be a Peacemaker. She’s an equal opportunity lover of all humans and pups alike. She makes friends with anyone that crosses her path and they can’t help but fall in love and become instant best friends.

Why does your pet love Caring Hands Animal Hospital?

The amazing staff and all of the treats and love that they give her!
