BIO:   ***Looking for a FLORIDA adopter for Sophie***

(7/17/18) Hi Folks:

My name is Sophie and I’m looking for a loving FL family to spoil me rotten!  I was dearly loved my previous family, but they died and then I was not cared for well at all until a good Samaritan recued me from an abandoned home and contacted AADR.   My foster mom assures me that I will soon be in the warm arms of a mom and dad who want a little princess to love.  That’s what I’m used to, don’t cha know?!?

Since I just arrived in Sarasota recently, my foster mom is still learning about my personality so she’ll have an update in another week or two.  I am getting along fine with the 5 other dogs in my foster home .... 4 females and 1 male.  At this house everyone gets up early ... 5:30 a.m. ... REALLY?!?  I’d rather just keep sleeping in my bed a little longer! 

I did have a full vet check and a complete dental when I got to AADR.  I lost two teeth so my foster mom is soaking my kibble in a little water to make it soft while my mouth heals. 

Oh, I am very calm until you’re fixing dinner for the pack ... then I’ll bark in hopes you’ll speed things up a little!  I am walking great on a leash with all the other dogs here, but I’d rather not have so many buddies.  I willing to share my cuteness with another pet in the household, but FIVE .... that’s a little much.  Foster mom doesn’t have enough hands to pet us all at once ... and I LOVE being petted! I’ll nudge your hand over and over to pet me!

Contact my foster mom (meg1709@comcast.net) for more info about my progress.  Thanks for wanting to adopt, not shop!!!

 

============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============

If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal.

We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport.  If you choose transporting by either volunteers through our organization or by paid transporter, there will be an additional $45 fee added for the required Health Certificate.

We will not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states.  If you have an issue with this, you need to take this up with your legislatures.

To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the  Adoption Information  on our home page.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please review  Read Before You Adopt  and then you can  complete an Application .

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers that will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well.  For now, please look for dogs on your coast.
