Sophie

My name is Sophie. I’m a Golden Retriever and a Certified Therapy Dog. I enjoy spending time with the people who live at Cherrywood Pointe of Roseville, either just resting at their feet or getting them to smile and pet me. I have found that usually people can’t resist my sweet face and calm demeanor. At night, I go home with my owner, Chris, who is the Activity Director at Cherrywood Pointe of Roseville. When you come to Cherrywood Pointe, come and say ‘Hi’ to me — I would love to get to know you!
