Sophie Yorkshire Terrier Ridgway, CO

Please review the policies below and call with any questions. 970 626 2273

Sophie is a sweet but shy little Yorkie. She may in time become more a lap dog/cuddler but right now takes some time to get to know a new person. She does not seem nippy or barky and she is good with other little dogs and would do best in a home with another little dog.

She is not house trained and does not have any training. She is just learning to walk on a leash.

Sophie loves to be out in the sunshine so while a large yard isn't needed, she would love a secure (she is a flight risk so cannot be off lease if not in a secure area) outdoor area to spend time outside.

Sophie has had a few teeth extracted and will need future check ups and possibly additional dental work. Adopters should be prepared to take this on.

Sophie should be available for adoption 11/9/2018.

Please be prepared to provide the training and dedication that will be needed.

We do not have any way of knowing if a dog or cat will do well with all children or all other animals.

*** This is why it is important that we introduce everyone in the home to the new pet. Please plan to have the whole family come visit.

*** We also require that any family dogs come into meet your potential adoptee. Please be sure your dogs are up to current on vaccines (distemper - parvo and rabies) before bringing them to the shelter.

*** All dogs must be transported home in a travel crate to transport your new pup home safely.


*** Renters must provide a copy of a lease indicating pets are allowed or contact information for the landlord.

If you are interested in meeting or adopting one of our pets or have questions about the process please see our website at www.adoptmountainpets.org or call the Shelter between 11:00 am and 5:45 pm Tuesday through Saturday. 970 626 2273
