About Sophie

Meet Sophie! Previously known as Negra, this lovely girl is ready for her second chance. Rescued from the Apple Valley euthanasia list in California, she left the shelter feeling shut down and uncertain. Now in foster care in Washington State, she has flourished and gained so much confidence. Sophie is around 5 years old, up to date on vaccines, and will be spayed soon. She gets along well with confident dogs and small dogs but likely needs a cat-free home due to her prey drive. She's continuously discovering herself and opening up in her foster environment. Sophie has overcome many challenges, and she’s eager to find a forever home where she can thrive. The great news? She can be transported wherever the right family is, so her new home doesn't have to be in Washington. If you're considering adding a dog to your family, Sophie has so much love to give.
