Sophie Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler Washburn, TN

Sophie is a very energetic little girl that loves to play all day. She loves all the toys she gets, whether it's a push toy or a tennis ball. She's plays tug-a-war and learning to drop it, to be thrown again.

Sophie has not been tested around young children, and not recommended for young children, but she does well with my 11 yo. But she's still plays a little rough, but she's learning to be more gentle.

Sophie is still young with a lot to learn, but she's eager to learn. She's doing well on the house training, but still has accidents when I'm at work for a long days. She's good about going into her cage.
She knows sit, and doing well on lay, and crawl

This little girl takes a little bit to warm up to strangers, but a small little car ride and then she feels comfortable around them. She's rides in the truck like a perfect angle.

Sophie is not microchipped, and not recommended for any homes with cats.

She does okay with certain other dogs, but she doesn't know when it time to stop playing and she doesn't do well with another dog that wants to be boss. She has a fenced in yard she goes out to most of the time. When she's loose she does want to explore yet still stays near, but doesn't always listen too well to coming back in.

She is currently being fed separately due to aggression with other dogs around her food. And she tensed up when she eats and you pat her, but she's getting more comfortable.
This little girl needs someone to understand her and take her time with her while teaching her.

Sophie is 2 years old, spayed and up to date on vaccinations. She weighs 25 lbs.

Sophie is being fostered in Washburn, TN. For questions, please contact syn_rodger@yahoo.com.
