🐾 MEET SOFLY! 🐾
Sofly is a handsome 2-year-old Black German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for his people. ❤️ After a difficult start in life, this sweet boy is ready for the stable, loving home he truly deserves. Pictures below show what he was like before he was fostered and how much he has blossomed now.
Sofly is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loyal. He loves being close to his people and is truly a shadow dog who wants nothing more than to be by your side. He is smart, loving, and eager to form a deep bond with his family. He is also currently working with a professional trainer on manners, structure, and confidence, and he continues to make wonderful progress.
🏡 Sofly’s ideal home:
• A house with a secure, fenced yard — no apartments
• A family who is home often or can provide him with plenty of companionship
• Breed-experienced owners are a big plus
• A patient and loving family who will continue working with him and his training
Because of Sofly’s rough past, he can be nervous and does experience some separation anxiety. When he becomes overwhelmed or overly excited, he may have submissive pee accidents. With patience, structure, consistency, and reassurance, he continues to learn and grow.
Sofly was originally at The Animal Foundation last year as a stray, emaciated and in desperate need of care. His original foster stepped in, helped bring him back to health, and gave him the love and support he needed. He was then adopted, but unfortunately, he was passed around again, and the person who had him next wanted to return him to the shelter. His original foster stepped in once more to keep him safe.
Sofly has been through far too much, but through it all, he has remained loving, gentle, and devoted. ❤️ Now, we want to find this special guy the right forever home—one that understands his needs, will continue supporting his progress, and will never give up on him or allow him to end up back at the shelter again.
