My name is Sofie!

Sofie is a three-year-old Benji-type terrier mix. The “breeder” referred to her as a “teddy bear,” which seems to be more of a look than an actual breed. Sofie is a typical terrier—she loves, loves loves her walks! She is under-socialized, and we are working on desensitizing her to new people and dogs, especially when she is in her crate or on a leash. Her nickname here is Sofie the Snapdragon! We are looking for a family who can meet her RDA of exercise and has some dog behavior experience in their background. We would like her new family to help her move forward rather than sheltering her at home. You can follow her progress on our Facebook page. Sofie has not yet been cat-tested, but we believe she could get along with a mellow dog with a proper introduction. Definitely no children and we prefer a house that's not busy with many visitors coming and going. Sofie has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for heartworms. Her adoption fee is $250. If you believe you are the family Sofie is looking for, please fill out an application at www.companimals.org.
