Guest kellabee Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) So, as some of you may know, and if not, I'll just do a quick run through. Sophie was our first foster who was sent to us while our male was sick. (he has now passed) I never wanted to foster yet, I just lived in a little apartment. She had no where to go and after I got the call about her, she was at our place in 10 minutes. *edited to include background story* Sorry I forgot to mention this, Sophie's story: She was never a racer, someone got her as a puppy. She was brought to a vet and never returned for her. They called up our rescue agency to take her and she was adopted to a home with young children. Sophie is VERY rambunctious and I don't know whether she knocked the kid over (I do know no aggression was involved) but the kid became very scared of her. She's a puppy, I don't hold it against her. We were her 4th home in a matter of a couple of months. So, that was 3 weeks ago, and she's here to stay. She's stuck through us during the stress of Dodge with a smile on her face and kisses waiting to be received (and she aims for mouthes!). To describe her, she's our ditzy, 1 year old (oh that puppy stage), playful, full of never ending energy, bubbly little girl. I suppose you want some pictures now hm?..... WELL DUH! PLEASE excuse my messy place, we're in the process of packing up and moving to our new house. Sophie's first night with us, she made herself right at home: Sophie and me, right after this picture, I got tackled to the ground with kisses. DH had to get her off me, (while in the process of trying to not pee himself laughing) From the top: Cousin Red, Sophie, and cousin Leila. Sophie and angel Dodge: Dodge: "Sophie, what in the world are you doing" This was taken about a week before Dodge passed: So thanks all for looking, you'll be hearing about Sophie's adventures soon!

You're telling me!! She went yardsaling with us today and she's sleeping, I wasn't aware she actually slept! I'm glad she's through that chewing stage... that's what always got me, but she's a collector and the other night she got into the garbage, and I woke up the in the morning, and she had it all around her (subway wrappers, a couple of empty cereal boxes) and i was like..um Soph, thanks lol.
