Sophie is in search of her forever home, especially now that her longtime companion has found his forever home in the US. We are eager to find Sophie the loving home she deserves, as she has been at the shelter for over three years!
Sophie is a Jindo/Sharpei mix, and many of our volunteers absolutely adore her and are rooting for her to find her forever family during the holiday season.
Here's what our volunteers have to say about her:
"She is a sweet, adventurous girl who absolutely loves the water. Despite living at the shelter for over three years, she maintains a great attitude and is really friendly with people and other dogs. She walks well on a leash, although she can get excited near the water and almost pulled me in once, haha. I know she will blossom beautifully when she receives the love and attention she deserves."
"Sophie is a strong, independent woman who would love to have a human of her own! She enjoys attention but also likes to do her own thing at times. Her idea of a fun time is exploring every new surface she encounters. She's very curious!"
Choosing to adopt a long-stay dog is a truly special and rewarding decision. If you have any questions about the adoption process or about Sophie, please contact us via email. We would be delighted to address any inquiries you may have.
If you are interested in fostering Sophie, we can certainly make the necessary arrangements as well.
- Good with adults: Yes!
- Good with kids: Probably older kids, as she is quite strong
- Good with other dogs: Yes! She has had various roommates, including high-energy dogs, puppies, and calm dogs
- Good with cats: Not tested
- Energy level: Moderate to high; she is energetic initially, but once the walk begins, she is focused on the walk
- Leash: Strong-puller, needs training
- Can be handled/touched: She may be a bit shy around new people, but with time, love, and care, she becomes more open
- Barker: If other dogs bark, she may join in
- Food aggressive: No, but she is food motivated :)
