My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sofie is the sweetest little girl. She is about 4 years old and weighs 15 lbs. She was dumped in rural Oklahoma with 3 other dogs. She is very loving and cuddly and great with dogs and cats. She's not yappy at all, I haven't heard her bark at all yet. She will make a great companion to anyone looking for a lap dog that can also be active.
She is currently still in Oklahoma where she was rescued but she can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. She has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take her in or she will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found.

Transport locations:
- Washington State (Kennewick, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Seattle/Tacoma)
- Oregon (Portland and Springfield)
- Colorado (Ft Lupton)
- Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian)
- Utah (Ogden)
- Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie)
- Illinois (Vandalia)
- Indiana (Spiceland)
- Ohio (Columbus)
- Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh and Harrisburg)

Vetting: spayed, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 2, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative)
Adoption fee: $600 (includes the $250 cost of transport from Oklahoma and all vetting listed above)
Optional extra: All dogs must be kept on heartworm prevention for at least 6 months following transport because of the heartworm development cycle to kill any larvae that might present and do not show up on a heartworm test. This is a monthly pill and she will have been given one close to transport. However, there is also the option to give a one time shot that lasts an entire year. This shot costs $150-$170 (based on weight) and is NOT included in the adoption fee but can be added if you choose to. This an added option for those who do not want to have to go to a vet within a month of arrival to get a prescription for the monthly heartworm prevention.
