Sophia Boxer Zuni, VA

Hi, I’m Sophia, a 4-year-old Boxer mix with a gorgeous tan coat and a sweet personality.

I was rescued from Lee County Animal Shelter and am now in boarding waiting for a family of my own. I’m crate and house trained and great with people and kids. Overall, I am very well-mannered. I just want to follow you around the yard. If I get the zoomies I won’t run into you so I can even be around little kids. I’m super loving and enjoy giving kisses and cuddles. I will even gently push into you for some loving. I am treat-motivated and take them gently. I also take direction very well. While I enjoy playing, I also calm well when it’s time to relax and just settle in.

I like to go on car rides and relax with my humans. I would do best in a home with a fenced yard where I can play. I like to investigate the yard on my own but will check in with my humans from time to time. I also like it when you tell me to go get my ball or a stick. I won’t bring it back to you, but I like if you pretend you are going to get it from me and give chase. I am a beautiful dog made of pure muscle. I am super strong and tend to pull on leash when I am excited but will calm after a moment and with training direction. I am good with calm submissive dogs that won’t be mean to me or challenge me to a fight. I am quite playful with dogs who are sweet to me. I want a happy life and am looking for a forever home full of fun play times and love. I am not good with cats or small animals though as I have a very strong prey drive, so please keep me away from them.

I’m spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. I’m sure that you will fall in love with me as soon as you see me. I am in North Carolina but can be transported to other states for a well-fitting home. If you think you are the perfect match for me, please fill out an application today. I can’t wait to hear from you! *Must be 21 or older to apply.
