Sophia disappeared after a burglary.
Sophia, the five-year-old pit bull that disappeared after a break-in at her East Lake home, was found late last night several miles away in a city park.
Her owners, Johnny and Krista Kral, say she’s in good spirits after her four-day disappearance. The Krals had suspected that Sophia was taken during the burglary — and feared she’d be sold into dog-fighting because of her breed.
According to Krista Kral:
She was so excited to be back with us. Her tail would not stop wagging, even while she was laying down almost asleep. She was really exhausted, ate an entire bowl of food in a matter of seconds, and smelled like a sewer rat!
She looks good overall. She has a bunch of scratches on her belly, most likely from brush, some bug bites, and some serious callouses on her paws, but nothing major. She has her own bed since she takes up so much room, but last night we couldn’t stand to not hold her. We gave her a good scrub-down and cuddled with her all night.
