Sophie Chihuahua Atlanta, GA

Sophie is a 5-pound Chihuahua who we believe to be around 10 years of age. She came to us full of mammary tumors which have since been removed and, thankfully, were benign.

Sophie can be a little temperamental, but after she warms up to her new person she is truly such a good little girl. She opens up and is very sweet once you have gained her trust. Sophie is a quiet and low key girl. She would be the perfect addition to any home looking for a low-energy dog. Sophie does enjoy going on walks! She can do long walks, but is also happy to just spin the block. She is even warming up to neighbors in his foster home and allowing them to pet her now.

Sophie is housetrained but her foster mom does crate her when she is away from the home. Sophie wants to be near you when you are home, but isn’t demanding and doesn’t bark in the house. She has a very mellow personality and isn’t playful with her foster brother, much to his chagrin.

She would love to chase squirrels if she had a fully fenced yard! It will take her a bit to warm up but, once she does, she will be your sweet and loving girl.

Sophie does have some skin allergies and needs a Cytopoint injection every 6 weeks. She also needs to be wiped with a wet cloth after walks to remove pollen. Her foster mom spot-treats the itchy areas as needed with topical meds. Sophie does need to wear her cone sometimes when she is very itchy but she doesn’t mind it. She also eats prescription food for allergies. She takes inexpensive allergy meds twice a day.

Can you provide this special little girl with all the love and care she deserves?
