Arrival Story:
I found Sophy at a nice dog kennel. She was one of 6 happy pups, all yellow like her. She was neither afraid of me nor too pushy, and she was the smallest one in the litter. She's still tiny compared to other labs!

Bio:
Sophy survived pica to become a well-adjusted adult dog. We only had one scary moment when pieces of yarn became stuck in her digestive tract, but several x-rays and some laxatives later, she was fine. She is a scamp - steals toys from her friend Dante. She loves slides and swings and agility courses and is taking obedience classes with the hope of moving up to agility when she is ready. She loves to perform.

Surgery for Sophy!

Tomorrow, Sophy dog is having a surgery to get some lumps removed. It's a routine surgery, but she will be under anesthetics for a while. Her mommy is worried about her, but Sophy is upset because she can't have any more treats until after the surgery. She will probably need to rest for a few days, but she will get lots of nice chewy chicken-flavored treats afterward for being such a good dog at the vet's. Chicken is her favorite! Please wish Sophy best of luck for her surgery tomorrow, thanks :)

Much has happened since Sophy's blog was last updated. Sophy now lives with her mommy in the state of New Jersey. Sophy misses her pal Dante, but now she has many loud children to play with. Sophy likes to go for walks in her new neighborhood and chase squirrels. She also bravely defends her family's home from the vicious gangs of deer that like to prey upon unsuspecting shrubberies. Of course, Sophy's favorite thing to do is spend time with her people. She gets especially excited when her mommy comes home from work. Sophy also has a new toy chicken that squeaks when it bounces really hard. Sophy loves her chicken and her rope, but her dinosaur is still her favorite toy.

 

New toy day

Sophy got a purple dinosaur today but that wasn't the coolest part. It has a squeaker which is the first time she has ever gotten a toy with a squeaker. Sophy is very gentle with smaller animals and when that thing squeaked, she dropped it an ducked, sniffing it carefully to check the damage. Again reassured it was not alive, she chomped again.

SQUEAK! She dropped it.


She's now in a battle with herself over her desire to chew the toy and her desire to avoid hurting it! hahaha. I am a mean mommy.
