Soia's Story

Personality: <br/>Very shy and nervous, but is opening up! Feels more confident with other dogs around.<br/><br/>Education: <br/>Pee pad trained. Working on confidence building to start learning house and leash manners.<br/><br/>Favorite Activities: <br/>Chewing Bully sticks, enjoying all things dairy (cheese, cream cheese, yogurt)! She loves her foster siblings, likes quiet and calm spaces.<br/><br/>Looking For: <br/>A calm home with a fenced yard where she can relax and be herself. She is shy and needs decompression time. Doggie pal would help her thrive and be more confident!<br/><br/>Special Needs: <br/>Needs another dog sibling.<br/><br/>Bio: <br/>Gentlest baby of them all!<br/><br/>Hi there! My name is Soia, and I'm a 42-pound Lab mix. I came all the way from The Bahamas, where I was rescued by Voiceless Dogs of Nassau before they closed down. I've had a bit of a rough start, so I'm still learning to trust people and feel safe in new environments. Right now, I'm pee pad trained, but I can potty outside if I feel comfortable and have the chance! I haven't learned how to walk on a leash yet, but I'm hopeful that I'll get there soon. I am taking Prozac to help manage my anxiety (~$10.00 for a month's supply, price will vary depending in where purchased and market value).<br/><br/>When I first arrived at TAP, I was a little shut down, but I'm slowly gaining confidence every day. I'm still a bit nervous and like to keep my distance from people, especially when I can see them, but when I have my foster siblings around, I feel braver and enjoy exploring more. I'm a quiet girl, and I love other dogs, so I'd really appreciate having a doggy friend in my forever home. I haven't met any cats yet, but I'm pretty sure I'd be fine with them. I do like older, respectful of space kinda kids, though!<br/><br/>I used to spend most of my time in my pen or crate, but I'm also a curious girl who made a huge progress - I now go in my crate or pen only when it's time to eat. The rest of the time, I enjoy lounging on the couch or dog beds! I'm a sweet girl, and with a little time and patience, I know I'll open up and bond with my forever family. I need a calm, mellow home where I can decompress and feel safe, with people who are ready to spoil me and help me learn to trust, and a fenced yard to feel safe. I might be a bit shy at first, but I promise I'll be a loving, loyal companion once I know I'm in the right place.<br/><br/>My adoption fee includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip. If you want to meet me, please apply!

The Animal Pad's Adoption Policy
We prioritize local San Diego applicants. We do not provide transport of dogs to other states, and don't allow the dogs to fly in the cargo of the plane. Our adoption process from start to finish, involves 3 standard forms, and 2 situational. All potential applicants must be capable of providing their adopted pet with routine and emergency veterinary care (yearly health checks, keeping vaccinations current, heartworm/flea preventatives, and immediate care in the event the animal is sick or injured). They are required to license their pet, and keep an identification tag on their pet at all times. All applicants must agree to a home check, and provide us with a veterinary reference, or personal references if you're a first-time pet owner. Our home checks are not to invade the privacy of the applicants, we do this to ensure the pet is going into a safe home. We do not discriminate against non-homeowners, or those living in apartments, condos, or otherwise. Our adoption fees vary from $150-1000. Applicants must agree in writing that if for any reason they are unable to keep or care for their pet, the pet will be surrendered back to our rescue and not re-homed, turned over to a shelter, pound, rescue, new owner, sold, etc. Adoption Application: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/
