Say Hello to Sarge!

Learn more about this pet and others on our Petfinder page

Sarge is a one-year-old male Labrador Retriever: Hi there, I'm Sarge! I'm a young chap with a heart full of love and have been in the care of Sunnyvale Animal Services for over 223 days. I'm curious about the world around me, and we could be best friends. I love exploring new smells and sounds, but I also enjoy quiet moments of cuddling. I'm playful too, and I can't resist a good game of fetch. I'm looking for a forever home where I can continue to grow and learn.

We would love for you to share this with others and bring awareness to the Sunnyvale Animal Shelter's animals and services. If your family is ready to add a member, we currently have many adoptable cats in our shelter looking for a new place to call home. Learn more by visiting our Petfinder page or calling (214) 862-4525.
