MEET SOPHIE MAY – THE LITTLE FLOWER JUST STARTING TO BLOOM 2 years old | 16 lbs | Dachshund Mix | A Heart Worth Healing There’s something beautifully quiet and pure about Sophie May — a gentle soul with eyes full of untold stories and a heart that’s only just beginning to understand what love truly feels like. Born into a life of neglect in a rural Mississippi backyard, Sophie May lived among countless other unspayed, unwanted dogs. No soft bed. No toys. No air conditioning in the brutal summers. No warmth in the bitter winters. Just survival. But then… her story started to change. Critter Cavalry Rescue stepped in, and this innocent little girl took her first step toward hope. Now in a loving foster home in Nashville, TN, Sophie May is experiencing everything for the first time — a comfy crate, a full belly, gentle human touch, kind voices, clean blankets, and safety. REAL safety. She’s still shy. She still flinches sometimes. She’s "almost there" when called. "Almost there" with potty training. But every single day, she takes a step closer to confidence, closer to connection… closer to love. Her foster mom is a seasoned Dachshund whisperer, giving her the space and patience she’s never had. And Sophie May is responding — slowly, tenderly, and beautifully. You can see her soft spirit starting to shine. She’s incredible with other animals — respectful of cats, gentle with chickens, kind with other dogs. She coexists sweetly with a 4-year-old child who understands her need for calm and boundaries. ️ She's learning to eat like a queen, and she’s beginning to realize: life can be good. Sophie May doesn’t need a perfect home — she just needs a patient one. A gentle, kind, quiet place where she can continue her journey of healing. One where someone will celebrate the small victories: the first tail wag, the first nudge for pets, the first time she lays her head on your lap. She’s not broken. She’s blooming. And with the right person, she’s going to be something truly extraordinary. Interested in giving Sophie May her forever home?Email us at [email protected] and let us know where you live! She’s fostered in Nashville, TN, but we transport to the Northeast almost every weekend with scheduled stops. Let’s find the home where Sophie May’s story truly begins.Please like, share, and tag anyone who needs a sweet soul like her in their life. ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact [email protected].

Adopt SOPHIE MAY and Receive SOPHIE MAY's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, SOPHIE MAY's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is SOPHIE MAY's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the SOPHIE MAY, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming SOPHIE MAY's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and SOPHIE MAY was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, SOPHIE MAY’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the SOPHIE MAY’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, SOPHIE MAY’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
