Apps are now open for Opal! 🤍
Opal is a young poodle mix around 2 years old who was sadly found as a stray before joining us here at NWDP. Her first couple of days at the rescue were understandably scary, as everything was brand new! But Opal quickly realized she was safe, people were kind, and she had nothing to fear 🙌🏼❤️
Opal began feeling comfortable after a few days, and has truly blossomed into a happy, silly, and loving little girl! However, she is still a bit more hesitant around our male staff & volunteers.
Opal may be cautious when faced with new experiences as she continues to navigate her new life. Her forever family can help her build confidence by offering patience, encouragement, and lots of positive, fun experiences at her own pace. With the right support, we expect this sweet girl will continue to blossom.
Opal has done well with the dogs she rooms with at the rescue and would likely enjoy having another playful, friendly dog to share her new home with. She has been thoroughly enjoying racing around the yard with her current buddies! Her history with cats and children is unknown, but she may be able to live successfully with either in an otherwise calm household, provided introductions are slow, thoughtful, and well supervised.
Opal is ready to leave her stray days behind and discover just how wonderful life with a family can be. If she sounds like she could be the perfect addition to your family, head on over to our website today and fill out an app! 💘
