Meet Sallie, a charming, lively and endlessly fun dog

Sallie went on a recent field trip and a group of people shared that she’s an incredible dog.

“We went on a hike, spent some time relaxing, and just enjoyed being outside together. Sallie was so calm, friendly, and sweet with everyone she met. She loved the water and treats, and she was always happy to explore or just hang out,” they said.

She never barked or whined and was such a positive, easygoing companion the entire day. The group said Sallie was distinguished, confident and an absolute joy to spend time with.

With her sweet, tipped ears and her big, beaming smile, Silly Sallie is pure happiness wrapped in fur.

She’s charming, lively, and endlessly fun — one of those dogs who seems to sprinkle joy everywhere she goes.

Sallie dreams of a home filled with adventures, tasty meals, cozy downtime, and people who adore her as much as she’ll adore them. If your heart has room for a spirited best friend who’s loyal, loving, and wonderfully silly, come meet Sallie today.

Her partner, Kimball Hinton Jr., 41, has been charged with first- and second-degree attempted murder, first- and second-degree assault, three counts of reckless endangerment and other firearm-related charges in connection with the shooting. One of the couple’s six children, who were all in the house on Myrtle Avenue in Bowie when the shooting happened, called police at 4:16 p.m. Thursday and said her mother had just been shot by her father, the documents state. Hinton himself called police two minutes later, according to the documents, and admitted shooting her.
