Sophia is coming to Fetching Hearts Rescue! Meet our latest young lady! Sophia has a gorgeous blonde and white coat and an adorable face that will light up your life! She is a sweet girl looking for a permanent place to call home. Our girl was found as a stray and the ideal adopter will encourage her and help her build her confidence. Sophia loves to play with dogs and children and is indifferent to cats. She loves squeaky toys, tug-o-war, and she can catch a treat in her mouth in mid-air. Sophia is crate trained and walks well on leash. She is still learning her commands, but knows the basics. After all this fun and frolic, Sophia would very much enjoy a nap. This super-friendly dog will follow you around. She is very gentle – loves being cuddled and petted. Searching for a new addition to the family? This is one pup you must meet!

Unless otherwise indicated, all dogs adopted through Fetching Hearts have received the following before being available for adoption:

Thorough veterinary examination.

All routine annual vaccinations, including Rabies, DHLPP, Bordatella (Kennel Cough), Heartworm Test, Fecal Test, Deworming, Microchip, Flea and Tick Prevention and Heartworm Prevention.

Spay/Neuter.
All dogs are quarantined for two weeks outside of the shelter (puppies four weeks) to ensure they don't break with disease.

VETTING NOTE: Fetching Hearts Rescue completely vets our dogs thoroughly to the best of our knowledge based on communication with our Southern Vets. If anything is brought to our attention, we treat the dog. After adopting the dog, you will be responsible for following up with all vetting going forward.

HEARTWORM NOTE: Dogs who were treated for Heartworm can test positive up to 4-6 months after last treatment. All dogs are immediately put on Heartguard/Ivermectin following the treatment to kill the Heartworm larvae. All dogs should be re-tested after 5-6 months from the last Heartworm treatment.
