ABOUT SOPHIE: Sophie is 37 pounds and she is 10 years old but you would never know it! She has plenty of energy and loves everyone dogs people kids. I don't know about cats. She tries very hard to please and is a complete love bug. There's nothing she likes more than being petted, and sitting with you with her head on your lap. she will follow you everywhere and wants to be your best friend. She is the most lovable dog I have ever had. She has never had an accident in the house and I would say she is 100% potty trained never complains. You can put her in the bathroom with the baby gates and she'll just sleep, never barks to get out just wait for you to get her. She is not a barker even when the other dogs are barking. She just kinda looks at them occasionally she will join in, but not very often. I recommend her highly to anyone she deserves the best Home ever. I have never created her because I've never had to. She has always had the run of my house ever since we've fostered her! The only thing she likes as much as people is a good soft bed to sleep in.
