Doggy Day Out Report

Today I met a new friend, and we took a nice walk in the park and around the neighborhood. I LOVED all the scents along our walk! I got excited when I saw birds, squirrels and an orange cat. I wanted to say hi, but my friend said we should greet them from a distance. I had a great time, and I can`t wait to go out again!

Three Words to Describe Me are: Energetic- Happy- Sociable

Notes from My Walker: Sofie is a friendly pup. She was so excited that she kept moving around when I tried to put her harness on. She jumped in and out of the car easily and sat nicely during our drive to Jeffrey Fontana Park. Excited by sorts of scents—birds, squirrels, humans, other dogs and even a cat—she pulled strongly on the leash. As she encountered more distractions, she began pulling less and focused more on sniffing. Sofie handled noises well; we came across a leaf blower, traffic, and a garbage truck, and she didn’t lunge or bark at any of them. Overall, Sofie is a happy girl looking for her forever family! She will thrive with a family that provides her with daily moderate exercise, training, and the love and support she needs to be her very best self!

DOG DAY OUT REPORT

Today I: went for a really long hike at St. Joseph’s Open Space Preserve. I got called beautiful on 3 separate occasions by other hikers! We saw a lot of other dogs and some of them tried to say hi, but I minded my own business and kept walking. I enjoy being pet just about anywhere on my body, but nothing compares to a good butt scratch! We stopped for water a few times, and each time I took the opportunity to really relax and lay down while drinking. I had a lot of fun sniffing for lizards in the bushes but mostly I was just happy to be out exploring the trails.

Three Words to Describe Me are: Lively, Adventurous, Sweet
Notes from My Walker: Sofie is a really friendly pup who enjoys being pet, it’s one of the few times she will sit still! She especially loves butt scratches and it’s so funny to watch the way she re-orients her body to make sure you’re petting her back there. She has a very adventurous spirit and likes to take the lead when walking; we were able to do some nice loose-leash walking for about 2 miles at the end of our hike, but only after 5ish miles of some pretty strong pulling. Sofie is a champ at getting in the car and was totally chill during the drive. I had a hard time getting her
