Marley Type Rescue But Named Sophie! HELP!

My neighbor, Cindy (who has the biggest heart and has the best sarcasm and wit and loves butterfish - inside joke), has a golden retriever named Riley. She took
Riley to the vet last week and discovered they had a cream colored
retriever. It turns out the owners brought the dog in and said.....we
don't want her...just put her to sleep. OMG! Are you kidding me?
BASTARDS they are!

Anyway....she said let me take her home and foster her with Riley. The
vet thinks she is right at 7 months old. Cindy said it took her a couple
of days to get Sophie (they think that is her name) to realize that she
could walk on the carpet and not have to stay in the kitchen on the
linoleum.

I went down there with the kids and she was so sweet with them. I did
notice that when we walked up to the door, Sophie was standing there and
Daisy barked at her and Sophie flinched. Once the kids came in...no
problem. She was so sweet to me and would just walk up and lean on me and
want to be petted and loved on.

Cindy said she is also house trained. Has had no accidents in the house
since she has been there. It just breaks my heart that these people owned
her and I don't know what they did, but she is good with people and other
dogs. She does not jump and go nuts. She just wants to be loved.

Cindy said that Riley (who is 2 by the way) is teaching her how to play
and enjoy being a puppy! I have attached a few pics.

She needs a home. Cindy would love to keep her, but she does not have the
space to take care of 2 retrievers. She is taking
darn good care of Sophie and will continue until we can find that baby a home! Vet said she is healthy with no issues! I would take her if I didn't have the girls! Can you pass on to any of your friends?

Cindy's number is: 205-410-5427 or you can call me at 205-447-8859.
