Ophelia 22172

Ophelia is a 4-year-old mixed breed weighing about 17 pounds, and she's proof that even the toughest beginnings can't dim a sweet soul. She and her siblings were rescued after being cruelly dumped in a rural area and left to survive on their own. When they were found, they were dangerously underweight and desperately needed help. Since then, Ophelia has been safe in a caring foster home where she's been slowly gaining weight and learning what it feels like to be loved and cared for. Through it all, Ophelia has remained a gentle, affectionate girl. She does wonderfully with other dogs and has a warm, loving nature that makes people fall for her quickly. She is very cuddly and affectionate. She loves toys and may occasionally take off with a shoe.

Ideal Home

Ophelia is overly curious about cats and will chase, so no cats in the home. Because she's still getting comfortable with leash walking, a home with a secure fenced yard will be important for her.

Ongoing Health

Ophelia has been spayed, is up to date on all vaccinations & preventatives, and is microchipped.

Training & Support

Ophelia is still working on some life skills. She's learning how to walk on a leash and can be nervous meeting people on walks and is very shy around cars driving by. She isn't fully housetrained yet, so she'll need a patient adopter who can continue helping her build confidence.
