Sophie St.J: a delightful rescue

Sophie is a "Mountain Feist" (a southern breed) found running loose in Tennessee. She made it to a shelter where she found the love of her new owner. She was very shy at first. Fortunately she quickly overcame the baggage she had come with by introducing calm obedience from a leader she could trust. Not only is she a great player in doggie day camp with other dogs but loves to please the leader while doing obedience. She is a great hunter and in her backyard shows her owner the moles and other animals she collects while being careful not to injure them. I have been fortunate enough to work with Sophie and her sister Raven in private lessons and board and train. Sophie loves the association with humans through obedience training. She just needs guidance to be the best her owner wants her to be. Although she lives in Madison, Wisc. the owner uses me because of previous dogs of hers I've worked and the results I've achieved. I'm proud to say that the owner knows the importance of continuing practice and has her enrolled in obedience class in her home town. Keep up the good work ladies and I'll look forward to seeing you again.
