Meet Opal — A Little Gem with a Big Heart  Opal is a soft, snuggly sweetheart who is happiest when she’s close to her people… or even better, hanging out with her doggy friends. She has a gentle, loving soul and a quiet, easygoing presence that makes her a wonderful companion for a calm home. One of Opal’s favorite things in the world is food and treats — and she gets adorably excited about them! She’s not an aggressive girl at all, just enthusiastically motivated and guaranteed to make you smile when snacks are involved. Treat time is truly her happy hour. Opal can be a bit cautious when approached too quickly, especially with loud or rambunctious energy, but once she feels safe, she blossoms into a total cuddle bug. She loves going outside to sniff, snack on grass, and show off her signature potty-time zoomies — they’re as cute as they sound! Her bark is equally adorable, though she rarely uses it. She enjoys the company of other dogs and would love a canine buddy to share her days with, though she’d also be content as long as she has a devoted human to attach herself to. She’s beginning to explore toys and learning what’s okay to chew and watching her discover these “new” joys is incredibly heartwarming. Opal prefers a quieter home without small children and appreciates patient, gentle guidance as she continues learning her routines. When she feels unsure, she’ll sweetly choose to relax in her crate on her own — she’s very good at advocating for herself. If you’re looking for a low-key, affectionate companion with a tender heart, a silly food obsession, and a whole lot of love to give, Opal may be your perfect match. Opal's adoption donation is $500 and she is being fostered in the Cincinnati area. She has been completely prepared for her new life—she's been spayed, microchipped, and is current on all vaccinations (rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and bordetella). She has tested negative for heartworms and is on heartworm and flea/tick prevention. Opal has also had a dental cleaning, so you can focus on what matters most: bonding with your new cuddle partner!
