My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sophie is a gentle, reserved German Shepherd looking for a calm home where she can finally exhale. She’s shy at first, but with patience and reassurance, she opens up into a warm, devoted companion. She’s the kind of girl who will sit with you during your Netflix marathons, follow you on coffee runs, and quietly be the most understanding friend you never knew you needed.She has so much potential to bloom with the right person—someone who loves soft souls and slow-burn friendships.
