CCDoggieSophie was a natural entertainer. Passing away recently, Sophie is remembered for her performances in Fairfax County public libraries for 11 years. Each performance began by bringing her owners, Jackie and Bill Brady, a flag. Her school routine began by ringing a school bell, bringing an apple to the teacher and then doing three difficult puzzles. Her musical talents included playing the piano, a crowd favorite, and the xylophone.  She recognized her three animal toys – lion, rabbit and frog – fetching them on command. Sophie will be missed.
