Sophia's Story
Everyone meet Sophia! This little cutie came to us from a local family when they couldn't continue to take care of her. She is a 9 month Yorkshire terrier mix thst will need some time in a new home to warm up. At 16#, she is the perfect lap sitting and traveling size. She does take some time to warm up to new people since she was probably not socialized properly in her former life. She does tend to be better with women than men and prefers the company of adults compared to children. Sophia is a diamond in the rough. She needs work on her housebreaking, crate training and leash training but with a little time, training and patience, we are sure she will make some lucky family a wonderful new addition, maybe yours? Due to her size and age, foster to adopt requirements are: •Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY to continue her vetting as needed in the upcoming weeks. •Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered. •Sophia does ok with like sized dogs and but she hasn't been cat tested. She does like to chase chickens if given the opportunity. •Homes with children over 10 years old should be ok but she prefers a quiet home if given a choice. •Willing to have current dogs/family members come to a meet and greet to meet the pet and be sure an acceptable match. •Having time available to care for, socialize and start training of a new pet. Preference will be given to homes with previous dog experience. An adoption donation of $450 is being asked, if you decide to adopt, in a few weeks, but fostering is free!! She has had her vet check, is current on vaccines, intestinal, heartworm and external parasite treatment and she will be spayed prior to adoption. Please help us to continue helping those that knock on our doors!
