About Sophie

Meet Sophie, a gentle senior dog ready to find her forever home. At 10 years old and weighing around 25 pounds, this sweet girl is looking for a loving companion. She's currently intact but will be spayed once cleared by the vet. Sophie has a calm demeanor and enjoys low-energy activities. She's good with smaller dogs but prefers to avoid rowdy puppies and large, overly active dogs. Although she doesn't show aggression, she values her space. Sadly, her previous owner passed away, and she was surrendered in rough shape, matted and confused. She's adjusting well to her foster home and appears housebroken. Sophie loves attention and is particularly affectionate towards her person. While she's shown interest in cats, her tendency to chase them suggests a cat-free home would be best. Fortunately, she’s up to date on her basic vaccinations and is heartworm negative. As she continues her journey to recovery, more details will follow.
