Arrival Story:
Her mom was taken in by a Foster home. A friend of mine knew I had been wanting a Weiner dog, but I also wanted to rescue or adopt from the Pound. He told me I had to see these cute puppies they had taken in, they were almost full-blooded Weiner... I wasn't convinced... but they brought a little round girl to me... and as soon as I met Sophie, I was SOLD!

Bio:
Sophie has never met a Stranger-- she loves everyone & everything. She doesn't really know she is a small dog-- she loves to play with big dogs & can definitely hold her own. She almost always has a SMILE on her face. Sophie had 5 brothers & sisters. they were sent to an Adoption shelter in New York... they are big city pups now!
