Piccolina Mia Sophia Bella

When I look into the eyes of an animal I do not see an animal. I see a living being. I see a friend. I feel a soul.

That is a long name for a 5 pound Teacup Schnauzer! AKA...Sophie Belle
I got her as a pup in 2007. I needed healing after my father passed away in 2005. I took it as a sign she was meant for me since she was born on Father's Day in Texas...and my father was born in Texas. Sophie means wisdom and she has been the best little dog! Luckily she has not had an identity crisis with her Italian name, meaning My Little Beautiful Sophie.

Hello, Sophie! I like your Italian name!

@kchuk Katniss weighs over twice as much as Sophie, yet they are good friends!

@rustymonkey Thank you Karen! Schnauzers are fun!

@kchuk I do not know what I was thinking when I gave a German dog an Italian name. But, Sophie means "Wisdom" and I knew she would help to heal me from the loss of my dad. Sophie taught me so much. I am going through 365 and looking at all her photos...
