Meet Sophie Day: A Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold

Sophie Day, an 11-year-old King Charles Spaniel blend, has a unique story and a gentle demeanor that endears her to everyone she meets. Short in stature with remarkably large paws, Sophie is a loving reminder of her previous owner, Carole Day, who sadly passed away after a prolonged battle with cancer. Sophie found a new loving home with Tom and Julie Goudie, who have embraced her as a cherished member of their family.

Carole and Sophie shared many adventures, with Sophie often exploring the woods behind their home. This adventurous spirit still shines in her bright eyes, though her once boundless energy has mellowed with age. 
 
Sophie’s friendly nature and love for people are undeniable; she greets everyone enthusiastically, often jumping up in excitement, a habit that has proven hard to curb.

Sophie enjoys the company of other dogs and tolerates the attention of cats, who seem to adore her despite her indifference. Her favorite companions, however, are of the human variety; she loves meeting new people and making friends wherever she goes.

Sophie is always on the lookout for a way out of her home and yard and has become a well-known visitor in the neighborhood, particularly on Manor House Lane, Loblolly, and Sunrise Manor. She has a knack for finding her way into almost every home, thanks to the kind neighbors who invite her in and then call Tom and Julie to let them know she’s on the loose again. Sophie has even perfected the art of feigning hunger, though her family warns not to fall for her act, as it’s just part of her charming ruse.

Sophie Day may be a faint shadow of the King Charles Spaniel breed in appearance, but her massive paws and warm heart leave a lasting impression on everyone she meets. Tom and Julie Goudie have provided her with a loving home, ensuring her well-being and happiness. Their care is complemented by the regular companionship of Hollis, Sophie’s best friend. You’ll often see Sophie walking through Royal Oaks, happily trotting alongside Hollis. Their bond is heartwarming, as they share a mutual adoration for each other. Hollis ensures Sophie stays in tip-top shape with regular long walks and provides her with unlimited cuddles. Together, they make Sophie’s golden years truly special, a beautiful testament to the power of love and friendship.
