Sophie is a sweet, slightly overweight Aussie...we're working on the weight. Her mom passed away and the family has not been interested in taking her in. She has some separation anxiety, understandably. But she would love an active family that will throw ball for her and take her for walks. She's very intelligent and just needs things to do.
I would really like her to have a fenced yard to play ball in.
I'm saying older kids because she jumps when excited and she is a herding dog so she might knock over littles.
She seems fine with other dogs, haven't tested with cats yet.
She does have seasonal allergies that are under control with 1x/day claratin.
Age: 6 years
Weight: 45-50 lbs
Temperament: Gets along with older kids, dogs, no cats
Training: house trained, crate trained, good on leash, knows commands
Vetting: Spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative

To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application ( www.bit.ly/DH-Adoption ) for caretakers to review. Once approved, we will bring the adoptable pet to your home for a preliminary visit. We are 100% donation funded; unless otherwise noted above, please expect a minimal adoption fee of $250 to cover each pet's basic vetting.
