February 2013 Pet of the Month – “SOPHIE” Kanfer

Calusa Veterinary Center would like to introduce our February 2013 “Pet of the Month”.

She is “SOPHIE” Kanfer.

My name is Sophie and I am a 12 year old Pomeranian.  My mommy and daddy got me from a breeder in Albany, N.Y. in September 2000.  My mommy traveled all the way from N.Y. to C.T. to meet the breeder at a dog show so she could take me home.  My very first car ride with my mommy as we headed back to N.Y. was in a town car which was good training for my eventual life in Boca.  I knew this was the family for me because when I got home there were so many new toys for me to enjoy.  Also, I had a nice yard to explore and many birds to chase.  My mommy even gave me a special place on the couch to take naps.

Twelve years later and I am still napping on the couch except we are now living in Boca.  Although I miss playing in the snow I still have a backyard which I enjoy by spending evenings lounging on a chair.  Sometimes my mommy and daddy will take me for a car ride in the convertible.  I love the way the wind blows through my fur and enjoy seeing so many new sites.  My mommy and daddy tell me every day that I am their “special little girl”.

Thank you Dr. Sinclair for nominating me for this special award and for always taking such good care of me.  Also, thank you to Nikki and the rest of the staff at Calusa who are wonderful.
