My story

Sonora is a young Doberman, around 1 year old, whose story is as heartbreaking as it is extraordinary, and her spirit is nothing short of inspiring. She was discovered on the border of Mexico, tied to a tree by her back foot. When we found her, we were already there picking up two other dogs in need when we came across her in this devastating condition. Sonora was freshly postpartum, severely emaciated, and still visibly engorged, clearly having just given birth and left to suffer alone. Despite everything she had endured, Sonora met us with softness. There is a quiet gentleness in her, a sweetness that somehow survived even the worst kind of neglect. From the very beginning, she has shown us that she is kind, beautiful, and deeply resilient. Now safe with us, Sonora is finally receiving the care, nutrition, and stability she has always deserved. She is a shy girl, preparing to head to training with our friends at Connected Canine, where she will continue building confidence, learning structure, and discovering just how good life can truly be. We cannot wait to watch her continue to heal, grow, and thrive. Sonora is ready for a future filled with safety, love, and patience, and in return, she will give her whole heart. If you’re ready to open your heart to a dog who will give you everything she has, please submit an adoption application at skysanctuaryrescue.org/applications. Once received, we’d be happy to answer any questions and arrange a meet-and-greet with Sonora.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Sonora, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
