Sophie, 9 weeks old, and two siblings are ready to be adopted. They are three of the “diaper box puppies” that were found by the side of the road several weeks ago. Sophie is similar in size and coat to a Yorkie. She weighs under 4 pounds.
Here’s what her foster mom says about her:
“Sweet Sophie, the smallest and the only girl. Reserved and quiet. Will play with brothers but most of the times just prefers to watch. Timid and unsure in new situations. Can be snuggly when she gets tired.”
She has been to a vet already for her first checkup, has been dewormed, and has had two of her puppy vaccines. Adoption fee is $400. At this time we are considering only families in Campbell County, or counties touching Campbell County, due to the requirement for follow up with sterilization surgery.

All adoptions begin with an application, found under the "Animals" tab on our website, friendsofcampbellcounty.org. *Unaltered babies under the age of six months can be adopted only to residents of Campbell County, the City of Lynchburg, and counties touching Campbell County. *Unaltered adult pets six months or older will need to be sterilized before they can be adopted outside our local area of Campbell County, the City of Lynchburg, or counties touching Campbell. *We do not promote dog adoptions to homes where an invisible fence is the fencing of choice. *We do not permit cats or kittens to be declawed following adoption.
