About Sophie

Sophie is a large, female mixed-breed dog looking for a new home. She's not fond of cats, so she'd prefer a cat-free environment. While she has been tested with dogs her size, it's essential to arrange a meet-and-greet with your dog prior to adoption. She may need some time to adjust to her new home, and the staff at the Joplin Humane Society recommend the Rule of 3 for a smooth transition. This means the first three days could be filled with uncertainty, the first three weeks are about learning new routines, and by three months, Sophie should feel settled. Always remember that a dog's behavior in a shelter is just a snapshot of their personality. Training, time, and patience are key as adoption approaches. Think you can provide a loving home for Sophie? Let's make it happen!
