Sophie

Meet Sophie! <br/><br/>Sophie is a 4.5 year old sweetheart who lives to make her humans happy. She has a beautiful tri-color coat, and weighs around 43 lbs. Sophie would be best suited to be a companion pet. Her entire day is centered around her humans and how to get affection from them. She is a mild-mannered dog and doesn't have the high energy that is typical of Border Collies. She is perfectly content with moderate paced walks and light games of fetch. If you throw too far, she will give up early and come jogging back to you! She doesn't really have the desire to run as fast and far as she can. She doesn't want to wander too far from her humans. <br/><br/>Sophie would do best in house that does not have small children or excessive noise. She was surrendered to HUNAH because she was having increased anxiety when small children came into the family. She has some sound sensitivity. Her previous home had chickens that were penned up, but her foster home has free-range chickens which blows Sophie's mind! She isn’t sure about her role when chickens are freely scattered around the yard and is still trying to figure it out....cautiously, and on leash. <br/><br/>Sophie likes her foster’s cats and wants to be as close to them as she can. Some cats can just tune her out and she relaxes. The other one is annoyed by this and hides away, which peaks Sophie's interest even more, but she has never shown any aggression towards them! <br/><br/>She has gotten along ok with her foster dog siblings but has shown resource guarding behavior when toys are in the picture. She will play with her human adjacent to the other dogs but isn't interested in playing WITH them. She would do best as an only dog.<br/><br/>She is trained to simple commands, house trained, and has pretty good recall. She is somewhat leash trained and currently working on learning not to pull. She is not crate trained yet but has been working with her foster family for short stints in the crate without showing any distress.<br/><br/>Sophie is a smart dog. She is loyal and has so much love to give. She wants to please her human above all else. Could she be the right fit for you?<br/><br/>Breed: Border Collie <br/>Age: 4.5 years old <br/>Weight: 43 lb <br/>Gender: Female<br/>Neutered: Yes <br/>Microchipped: Yes <br/>Dog friendly: OK. Some resource guarding issues. Would love to be an only dog!<br/>Cat Friendly: Yes<br/>Kid Friendly: Older quiet kids OK.<br/>Crate trained: In progress<br/>House trained: Yes<br/><br/>Sophie is currently being fostered in Brownsville, OR.
