Jennifer Aniston adopts rescue dog

Hollywood actor Jennifer Aniston and her beau Justin Theroux have adopted a rescue puppy and named her Sophie.
"We have a little puppy, Sophie, a rescue. A little pit boxer," said Aniston, 43.
The couple decided to adopt after Aniston's "Extreme animal activist" pal called her up and said 10 puppies were "left in a box in front of a shelter", reported Us magazine.
"Sophie came up to us, and that was sort of a big indicator of they choose you," the Wanderlust actor said.
"We were there for three hours, and I'm telling you, I was almost walking out with three puppies. It's so hard. That's why we named her Sophie, because it was Sophie's Choice. I was crying - it was so hard."
Aniston added that she and Theroux are currently crate training Sophie, "but she doesn't love" being "trapped in a cage."
"I have a white German Shepherd, Dolly, and she loves her crate. We were a little nervous about them getting along. Dolly doesn't have a crate anymore but she loved it. Somehow she walked her way into Sophie's crate, which is tiny... It was good because Sophie was like, 'I love going wherever you go.' They slept there together the whole night."
