About Sophie

Meet Sophie, the adorable little Chihuahua with a vibrant personality and a profound love for cuddles. This little girl knows how to play hard with her brother, but once you scoop her up, she transforms into the sweetest cuddlebug, often curling up under your chin. Sophie is progressing well with her potty training and sleeps soundly through the night in her crate with her brother. In her foster home, she's been fantastic around dogs of all sizes, from tiny friends to 120-pound giants, and she shows great respect for cats, maintaining a considerate distance. Clever and curious, Sophie has unique tastes; her favorite toys are crunchy maple leaves rather than the standard squeaky ones. If you’re seeking a sweet, playful companion who’s always ready for a cuddle, Sophie could be the perfect match for you. She’s already received her first round of puppy vaccines and will be spayed through her adoption agreement at a later date. Her adoption fee is $525. Don’t wait too long; this little girl is waiting for a loving home!
