Oprah's Tribute To Sophie, Stop Puppy Mills
 Friday, April 4th, 2008

 

I'm more of a cat person than a dog person, although I love both, but I've been saying stop the puppy mills (and overzealous breeders) and go to shelters for...well, I can't quite put a date on it.  A couple of years, at least.  Sometimes on my blog, sometimes to whomever will listen...sometimes to brick walls.  Well that's what it feels like at times.  Anyhow, Oprah Winfrey's beloved 13-year-old dog, Sophie, passed away last month after suffering kidney failure, and I feel sooooo bad for O - her golden retriever Gracie just died less than a year ago after choking to death on a small ball.  Oprah's crew created a video tribute to Sophie today, that had Oprah choked up...and probably everyone in the audience!  And maybe you after you watch it!

Sophie has been such a part of Oprah's show.  Remember when The Dog Whisperer analyzed why Sophie cried when Oprah or Steadman left the house?  Or when Sophie had a luncheon?  Oprah then had the founder of Mainline Animal Rescue, Bill Smith, on the show to discuss a billboard put up especially for O.  Watch.
