My story

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

Opie is a super smart, super sweet dog, perfect for a family with children who want a buddy to play with! He fetches, sits and is working on stay and improving his leash skills. He is crate trained but also human bed trained and is a perfect sleep companion. He is also dog friendly and likes to play with both of my dogs though the older one could live without it. There is not a mean bone in his body and he is very quick to bond. Whoever gets Opie is so lucky!

Opie is a 5 years old Chihuahua mix and he weighs around 19 lbs. He is playful and will be great with a doggy or human playmate. Does he sound like a dog that you have been looking for? Please fill an application to adopt and we'll arrange a meetup if you're a suitable candidate for Opie.

It is the policy of the society to provide humane care and treatment for animals needing protection in the area served by the society; to seek to return lost animals to their owners; to seek suitable homes for animals without owners; to promote spay/neuter in the community; to encourage a network of foster homes for adoptable animals, to aid in encouraging adequate conditions in our city shelter and to educate this community in living with their pet and being responsible pet owners, i.e.-education on health, training and behavioral care, as well as ways to recognize abuse, neglect or cruelty. In its care and disposition of animals, the society shall maintain the highest level of care and integrity in placement, care and education.

We will be active in our community educating the children in our schools, bringing the community together with fundraisers and pet friendly events and ensuring each pet owner has all the resources/information necessary to care for their pet.
