Ottawa Dog of the Week – Sophie the ShiPoo

Ottawa Dog of the Week for December 3rd

LIZ 3247

Say hello to Sophie! She is a Shih-Tzu/Poodle mix recently added to my sister’s in-law’s family. They have an older dog named Panda, but their seven year old daughter wanted a puppy to play with. Gracie is already very attached to Sophie. Liz went over to see the new puppy and sent me some adorable pictures.

They went for a walk… Sophie doesn’t seem to be doing much of the leg work.

Sophie the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retreiver

“Sophie is an 8 year old?? Nova Scotia Duck Tolling retreiver. She was found badly matted, confused and terrified wandering in Gatineau. She was rescued and brought to Hopeful Hearts where I quickly adopted her.

She came into my home at the beginning of November 2008. You could not approach her, she would cower and scream. She limped and was in constant pain. I had her teeth cleaned and some extraced and five tumours removed (all benign) thanks to Dr. Zarkeshvari. She is on glucosamine sulfate and vitamin C and has a home cooked diet.

Sophie is now full of energy. She greets all whom she meets, is a social butterfly and sings when I play the harmonica for her. She shares her home with Bubba and is a camera fiend. These photos were taken by Liz Kerrison at a photo shoot for Bubba!

We are very blessed to have Sophie in our lives.” – Sophie’s Mom, Karine
