Sophie is a 4-year-old female Chihuahua mix (ID No. A461691). Sophie is a sweet girl but can be shy when meeting strangers. However, once she gets to know you she doesn’t mind a gentle head scratch. She would do best in a home without young children, with a family who understands she needs to be treated gently.

Sophie gets along with other well-mannered dogs, and would need to meet any current dogs in the home before being adopted. She is good on a leash and loves going for walks. She loves getting treats and takes them gently and she is currently learning how to sit on command. If you’re looking for a sweet girl with a few little quirks, Sophie could be the one for you. You can find out more about her at www.kingcounty.gov/services/animals-pets/animal-shelter/adopt-a-pet/adoptable-animals.aspx. Sophie is currently available for adoption through Regional Animal Services of King County, but is located at the Eastside Pet Adoption Center, at the Kirkland Petco at 12040 NE 85th St., Kirkland. Her adoption fee is $150, which includes her being micro-chipped.

Meet Sophie, and other additional animals available for adoption, at Regional Animal Services of King County’s Pet Adoption Center in Kent, 21615 64th Ave. S. For information, email pets@kingcounty.gov or call 206-296-PETS.
