Sophie is a 3 year old American Pit Bull Terrier in Kernersville, NC, who needs $6,000 for MLP Surgery.

Sophie had been in our life for 3 years now and is the sweetest girl ever! I volunteered for dogs day out and after just a few hours with her I knew I had to adopt her. We had an instant bond, my other rescue dog gravitated towards her immediately and my daughter couldn’t help but fall in love. Prior to us adopting her, Sophie spent some time in a shelter and before that she was a stray.

Sophie needs medial patellar luxation surgery on both back knees plus an ACL tear repair. The unfortunate bad knees is something that hereditary and the acl tear must of happened while playing with our other rescue dog. Both back knees are a stage 4 which requires surgery in order for her to live a full happy life.

Sophie absolutely adores her dog brother Oliver and they enjoy wrestling and cuddling together. She loves a game of tug a war and is a huge couch potato. She snuggles between us every night and loves getting all the human attention. She’s very sweet and gentle with my rambunctious toddler. She hardly barks and will not run from us even if the door is left open.

Sophie’s knees cause her lots of pain, she’s on pain pills and takes it easy most of the time. Although she’s still a very happy dog, this surgery will be life changing for her. She’s only 3 and has a whole life ahead of her. We would love to get her back out enjoying life.
