🎉 Meet Sonia, the cutest little lady in search of her forever home! At 8 years young and weighing in at a delightful 55lbs, Sonia is here to steal your heart and maybe even your snacks! 🍪 This charming lady found herself in the shelter during the summer of 2025, and let me tell you, everyone was instantly smitten. In playgroups, she was the belle of the ball—gentle, tolerant, and social with her fellow dog friends. When she decided playtime was over, she would sweetly sit by the door, ready to let her human supporters know it was time for a break. Isn’t that just adorable? 😍 Thanks to a dedicated foster, Sonia got a taste of the good life outside the shelter in September, and oh, has she blossomed! 🌼 In her cozy foster home, she has become house trained, crate trained, and has mastered loose leash walking. Yes, indeed, this little princess enjoys sauntering around on joint walks with her pooch roommate—she's quite the social butterfly! 🦋 Sonia recently had a simple surgery to remove a couple of pesky benign masses, but overall, she’s a mellow and sweet older lady just waiting for someone to cherish her as much as we do. 🥰 With slow introductions, she could thrive in a home with another dog, but she is also perfectly content being a solo superstar. What makes Sonia special? 👉 She's a gentle, affectionate cuddle bug ready to charm the pants off of anyone lucky enough to welcome her home. 👉 Looking for a low-medium energy companion? Sonia is your gal! She’s perfectly happy lounging around while you work or enjoying a lovely walk in the neighborhood. 👉 This cutie pie is searching for a forever home—somewhere she can cuddle, chill, and receive all the love her heart desires. ❤️ So, if you’re ready for a sweet companion who will bring joy to your days, it’s time to apply for Sonia through the Buddy App! Don’t wait—let’s make some magic happen! 🌟 The Dog Coalition LA is here to support Sonia’s journey and make sure she finds the loving adoptive family she so deserves!
