Story

Meet Sophie 🤍 Sophie is an 8-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel mix who is ready to settle into a calm, loving home. As a breeder release, she is quickly learning what it means to be a cherished companion and has already proven to be a devoted and affectionate little dog. She forms strong bonds with her person and loves being close, whether that’s curled up in your lap or following you from room to room. Sophie thrives on companionship and would do best in a home where she can be someone’s special girl. Sophie is kennel trained and does well overnight without any issues. She is on a consistent potty schedule and will let you know when she needs to go. With routine and consistency, she continues to do very well. Sophie would prefer to be the only dog in the home, as she is not comfortable sharing her person with other dogs. Cats are manageable for her. She has been around chickens while on leash and has been tolerable, but her long-term behavior around them off leash is unknown. She walks nicely without pulling and responds well to gentle redirection. Sophie enjoys treats, looks forward to mealtime, and simply wants a quiet life filled with love and attention. Fostered in Trempealeau, WI To apply to adopt, visit tailsofhopewi.org Please note donations using the SPONSOR ME tab on PetFinder will not go to Tails of Hope-WI.
