"Sonia" came to the shelter in neglected condition, her ribs sticking out. She was sweet
but shy when approached. However, she has been putting on weight and confidence by the day!
Now she stands up in her cage ready to greet anyone who walks by.
Volunteer walkers find "Sonia" easy on leash. She has energy to burn off when she first
gets out for a walk, but very soon settles into a very comfortable pace. "Sonia" is
responsive and interactive, enjoying human attention. She will sit on command and should prove easy to further train.
Her coat is a shiny, dark chocolate brown.
She recently passed a temperament test with one qualification. The tester felt that because
"Sonia" likely came from an abusive and neglectful situation, she will need some more
work restoring trust in being handled. For this reason, a dog-experienced guardian
is recommended for her, with no children under 16.
She's approximately 45-50 lbs., ~2 years old.
