My grandparents had a dog that looked just like her when I was a kid. Her name was Sophie but I couldn't quite pronounce it at that age.
I had met a chocolate lab before and she was shaped like one but her coat was white instead of brown.
So to me she was a Soapy, the white chocolate lab
My childhood friend had a dog like this, and I can still remember how soft and velvety his ears were...
I can confirm: her ears are SUPER velvety
I think I understood where Cruella De'Ville was coming from after feeling those ears...
Lol kidding, of course.
