About Sophie
Take one look at Sophie's striking bicolor eyes and you'll know why she's hard to forget. After being abandoned by her past owners, Sophie is searching for people who want to give her real love—a place where walks are a daily ritual, the couch is always open for naps, and there are plenty of tummy rubs and treats. She would thrive in a home where her folks are active and home often, committed to showing her the kind of stability she's missed. Being able to multitask, like typing with one hand while petting her, would win major points in her book. She's hoping for a fenced yard where she can get the zoomies, chase after the occasional squirrel, and stretch out in the sunshine. Sophie is crate trained, potty trained, and plays well with other energetic dogs when introductions go slowly. She’s got energy to spare and is ready to give all the affection she couldn’t before. Sophie can be adopted or fostered in the greater Austin, Texas, area, and she's eager to find out what real family feels like. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
