#7- the new poochie

Well, on saturday 2/21, Amanda and I went to the petsmart in Layton to go look at adopting a dog. We had been looking for a dog, and at this dog for a few weeks.

What an amazing dog she is-

Her name is Sophie. She is a Lab mix, probably a bit of a malamute and golden retriever, she is 4 years old roughly.

She was found on the street in Preston Idaho, where she had been raising some very young puppies.

The first time we went to the adoption at petsmart, both of Sophie's puppies were adopted. We wanted to adopt Sophie that day, but decided it would be best to not fully give into our emotions but to be Adults (being an Adult is no fun) and make sure it was the right thing.

Well we kept an eye on the adoption website to make sure, Sophie hadn't been adopted, as Amanda had fallen in love with her the moment we met her. She dreamed about her at night and it was all she can think of.

Well then this last Saturday we went to petsmart and adopted our newest love-Sophie.

Sophie is a great dog, very obedient- she knows how to sit, lay, stay, play fetch, go to her kennel, etc.

She is also very quiet, she hasn't barked at all, except for when she is rolling around in the grass, playing.

Very loving dog, and we are very excited to have her in our family!
