SOPHY GOES TO THE DOGGY DOCTOR is the third in a series of books that feature Sophy, a dog who was adopted by the author from a shelter. In this book, Sophy goes to the doggy doctor for her annual checkup.

SOPHY GOES TO THE DOGGY DOCTOR is for all children, dog lovers, adults learning to read and those like the author's 37 year old son who has Down syndrome. It is April Kihlstrom's hope that this book will bring both comfort and smiles to readers as they recognize emotions they may have felt at times in their own lives.

April Kihlstrom is a multi-published, award winning author who, a couple of years ago, frustrated at the lack of appropriate books for him, began creating books for her 37 year old son who has Down syndrome. The result is the series of Sophy books: SOPHY'S STORY, SOPHY GOES TO DOGGY CAMP and now SOPHY GOES TO THE DOGGY DOCTOR.
