My story

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

Thank you, Scott Boling with Coldwell Banker, for sponsoring my care! My adoption fee is just $25!

Meet Opal, a stunning 10-year-old German Shepherd mix who proves that beauty only grows with age. Opal arrived at HHHS as a stray in late January, carrying a heavy burden-a large mass that made it difficult for her to stand. Our veterinary team acted quickly to remove the tumor, which was identified as a mast cell tumor. While she is feeling much lighter now, she will need an adopter ready to chat with our medical team about her ongoing care and medications.

Opal is the definition of "dainty." She is a gentle lady who thrives on soft pets and quiet companionship. Because she values her personal space and isn't a fan of being hugged or restrained, she's looking for an adult-only home where her boundaries are respected. She's a social girl, though! She enjoyed the company of other dogs during her assessment and even carried a stuffed toy around like a prize. If you have a soft spot for seniors and a calm home, Opal is waiting to meet you.
