My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Opus is a handful. Startles at color line, which makes him a challenge placement. Opus is very sweet, yet inconsistent training in his youth has him very nervous about grabbing his collar line. No children for this hound is a rule. If you think you have the skills and ability to give a structured routine, Please visit our website Daphneyland.com and submit an adoption application if you are interested in Opus or any of his 60+ companions looking for homes!
