Sophia Needs Boot Camp!

We have a great trainer on board to help us with Sophia's issues - we just need to come up with enough money to send her to him - and sooner rather than later!

Sophia is Returned



My, how she's grown! Sophia, grinning and happy and full of energy, comes back to us. We are committed to working on her reactivity and start putting a plan in place to help Sophia.









Sophia Is Adopted

Sophia goes to her new home and soon after her adoption starts to exhibit reactive behavior towards other dogs. She was great in foster care with other dogs but for some reason, as an only dog, things change for her. Her adopters decide to return her.

Sophia in Foster Care



Sophia loved being in foster care with several dogs and a number of cats. Her favorite thing was to play chase in the yard!



Sophia's story

Sophia and her brother Austin were dropped off at a rural high kill shelter in West Virginia when they were just 7 weeks old. At this shelter, 40% of puppies never make it out alive. There was something special about little Sophia and Austin and we knew that we had to give them a chance. Both Sophia and Austin came into foster care and we searched for good homes for these two cuties.
