Story
Meet Ophelia (or Opie, as we call her)!
Ophelia is a 6 month old, 34-lb Lab Mix who loves cuddles, naps, and being close to her people. She’s adapted to foster life and ready to find her forever home!
Ophelia's superpowers include being smart and food motivated (which makes training a breeze), getting along great with our other dogs, and responding beautifully to commands like “no” and “stop.” She came to us two weeks ago as an unwanted puppy mill puppy, timid at first, but growing more curious and playful every day. She sleeps through the night in her crate like a champion and naps quietly in her playpen during the workday, mastering the work-from-home rhythm right alongside us.
In terms of house training, Ophelia is close to fully housebroken and now trots herself down to the yard when nature calls. She’s still working on being okay when left alone, it can be a little rough at first, but she’s making real progress.
Some of her favorite things are hard chew toys (Nylabones especially), long afternoon naps, chasing our other dogs around the yard, and snuggling up close for cuddles.
If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal, food-motivated pup who’ll fit easily into your daily rhythm and reward you with full cuddle-bug energy, Ophelia might be your perfect match.
Ophelia is currently being fostered in the Cincinnati, OH area. Her adoption fee is $300.00.
To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt
All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.
For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.
We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
