Infanta Sofia recently stepped out for her second-ever solo engagement, visiting the ONCE Guide Dog Foundation and it was a day filled with smiles, tenderness, and wagging tails.From the very first moment, it was clear how happy she was to be surrounded by the dogs.

Infanta Sofía made a point of greeting every dog she saw, stopping to pet each one with genuine affection. Her joy was unmistakable, and those present could see how naturally she connected with the animals.

One especially touching moment came when she met a 22-day-old puppy, whom she lovingly named Ona. After gently petting the tiny dog, Infanta Sofía sweetly asked, “Could you give it to me?” — a spontaneous and heartfelt remark that drew smiles from everyone around her and perfectly captured her warmth and innocence.

The visit also highlighted her personal bond with dogs, as Infanta Sofía herself has a dog named jan, making the encounter even more meaningful for her. Her comfort and ease around the guide dogs reflected both familiarity and sincere admiration for the important work they will one day do.
