About Opal

Lab
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Asher and Opal are shy Labrador mixes looking for a special angel to give them the home they have never known. Most of their previous life was spent outside without much human interaction. Now that they have come into our care, both have blossomed. Asher is 5 years old and the mother of four year old daughter, Opal. Both are medium sized dogs that weigh less than thirty pounds. This is a bonded tight-knit family that loves each other very much. Asher and Opal do best when they are together. Consequently, we are hoping to adopt them to the same family. These pups are looking for a simple life with a family that enjoys life in the slow lane. They need a calm quiet household without a lot of people coming and going. An adult home or one with older children would be best. These girls are really very sweet but quite timid and reserved. They are perfectly content to go about their day as you do whatever it is you need to do. Most of the time, you will find them curled up together for a nap or taking turns with a chew toy. They are quiet, well behaved, and housebroken if kept on a schedule. None are really into walks, but they will follow you out nicely to their own fenced in backyard. They love running around together and spending some time outside exploring. Over time, we introduced other calm well-balanced dogs to their play group and all have responded well. Another confident stable dog may be a benefit in their new home to help them adjust. Don't expect them to run up to greet you when you walk in the door. They are just not into hugs and kisses. A good meal, a warm bed, and a soft gentle voice to tell them they are loved are all they require. They really are quite easy to please. Asher and Opal are two special dogs that that would love to be in a forever home of their own.
