Story
Aloha, I am looking to find a new home for my dog Sophie. Sophie is a 5yr old hound mix who I adopted just last year after fostering her. Sophie is energetic, sweet, playful, loves pets/cuddles, is great with other animals, vocal, and overall amazing. She also knows tricks including sit, shake, and lay down. She would do anything for a ball or any toy and loves to play fetch and tug o war. Unfortunately due to family reasons, I am no longer able to keep her but I am making sure she finds the perfect home. Sophie can get into things as well as become stressed at times and would chase her tail or lick/chew at her legs but if she has lots of attention, love, and understanding then she’ll be okay. Honestly she was the easiest dog and as much as I wish to keep her, I know someone else will be there for here more.

Lucy is a 20 lbs year and and half young dog. She is loyal, forms strong bonds, intelligent, curious, energetic, alert, once bonded provides unconditional love and will follow you anywhere. She is trainable, has expressive eyes and is loving with those she bonds with. She would do well with a patient and experienced dog owner as an only dog. She is timid in unfamiliar situations and with strangers. She will thrive being near her person.
