Description:

Meet Opal!

This ultra sweet girl was dumped in the over night "drop box" at an animal pound in rural Kentucky. There she sat on death row, so scared, confused and all alone for 9 days at which time, we were made aware of her urgent plight. (just LOOK at her picture- this was taken at the pound) Opal was saved from certain death in the nick of time!

Opal is about 3 years old and is gentle and sweet. She is not overly rambunctious but has a soft, playful side to her personality.

Opal loves to be brushed and talked to in a gentle voice. She is a beautiful girl with distinctly feminine characteristics. She will melt your heart when you meet her - she has such a humble demeanor. Opal is very well behaved but is not really sure what to do when you put a leash on her. She will need some gentle help in this area.

Opal loves other dogs and is fine with cats. She just ignores them. She will be great with well behaved kids who are respectful of animals.

This girl seems to know she was about to die in a horrific pound (one that gasses their death row dogs in large groups,,, the worst of the worst!) and as a result, acts so appreciative and grateful to anybody who treats her with kindness.

She is going to make some lucky person or family extremely happy! She needs a great home where she will be given the love and attention she so deserves.

Please feel free to fill out an Adoption Application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features.

We promised Opal we would not let her down and we need your help!

Thanks.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
