Based on Animal Welfare League NSW's listing, and in some cases inferred from Opal's description. Always confirm with them before deciding.
All adoption applications are handled directly by Animal Welfare League NSW. Contact them to arrange a meet-and-greet and start the adoption process.
Opal is a very sweet girl who is happiest when she’s getting cuddles, and a close second is anything involving food. She loves being near her people and will happily curl up beside you for as long as you’ll let her. She’s playful and affectionate, and she’s the kind of dog who makes an ordinary afternoon feel a bit brighter just by being in the room. Opal’s enthusiasm is a big part of her charm, but it does come out as jumping up on people, often quite suddenly. Because of this, she would suit a home with older kids who can handle a bouncy greeting, as she could easily knock small children off their feet. She’s still learning her manners, and a patient family who can keep working on this with her will see the rewards. Opal would do best as the only dog in her home, and she needs to keep building her social skills with ongoing training and positive experiences. She isn’t suited to a home with cats. She’s a playful girl with plenty of energy, so she’d be happiest with someone who is home more often and can give her company, activity and attention through the day. If you have a cuddle spot ready and a few treats in the pantry, Opal would love to meet you. My adoption fee includes desexing, health check, microchipping, I am up-to-date with vaccinations and eligible for free lifetime registration.
If Opal isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
