Opal's Story

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?<br/>Hi there! My name is Opal!<br/><br/>ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL? <br/>I am the most darling girl!<br/><br/>HOW OLD ARE YOU?<br/>Best guess is that I was born in mid-2025. <br/><br/>WHAT BREED ARE YOU?<br/>I am a pit bull mix… the best breed around in my opinion.<br/><br/>HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?<br/>I am a perfectly proportioned 25 pounds of preciousness. <br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?<br/>I am a small gal, with white fur and a really cute mocha-colored spot over my eye and on both my ears. Foster mom tells me I have a very long tail… seems perfect to me.<br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?<br/>I like puppy food and Fruitables treats, but I am not picky! And just for the record, fake plants are not edible… I definitely don’t care for those.<br/><br/>WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?<br/>I can be a little shy at first, whether meeting new dogs or humans. But I am very friendly and cuddly after I warm up.<br/><br/>Once I feel at home, I am ruling the roost with equal parts play and snuggles.<br/><br/>DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY: <br/>Sleep, eat, play, repeat! I am easy to please.<br/><br/>WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?<br/>I love ALL toys!<br/><br/>DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?<br/>I am a work in progress, but I know how to sit, which is pretty impressive, in my opinion! I also go into my crate very easily for bedtime and nap time. But if you’d like me to play hard to get, I’ll take a bribe (or two or three) to “convince” me to go in.<br/><br/>WHAT SCARES YOU?<br/>I am a pretty brave young girl! As I said, I might seem shy at initial meetings, but that’s just me being cautious, not really scared. <br/><br/>HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?<br/>I got to hang out with some 8- and 10-year-old girls, and they were fun! I haven’t been around little kids yet, though. I am still very young and am learning not to be too mouthy. But as I get older, I will learn not to bump kids around! I just like to play.<br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE CATS? <br/>I haven’t met any cats.<br/><br/>HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?<br/>I love other dogs and play well. Please set me up for success with slow and proper introductions! If I start to get over-excited with my friends, I take a short time out to calm down and keep playtime fun for everyone. <br/><br/>IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?<br/>Oh, that’s easy… I’d probably be somewhere surrounded by tasty steaks and other delicacies. But my second choice is on my person’s lap snuggling. You like puppy smooches?<br/><br/>HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?<br/>All good! Healthy puppy with a long tail over here!<br/><br/>WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?<br/>Well, the lady who feeds me is my favorite, of course, but I sure do love my foster dog brother, Noodle.<br/><br/>WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?<br/>I hang out in my comfy crate during the day while everyone is away.<br/><br/>WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?<br/>I sleep in my crate and am perfect in it. Not one accident yet!<br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?<br/>I am a work in progress! I am new to the whole walking thing, but I am learning quickly. And it is definitely NOT my fault those pesky squirrels keep taunting me! The outdoors is new and everything makes me want to chat. Hello, hello, hello!<br/><br/>DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?<br/>Sometimes I greet people with my puppy paws, but I am working on staying down. I just get so excited when humans come to see me!<br/><br/>ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?<br/>I’m doing great! As a puppy, I need a routine to help me learn good habits, and will need you to be patient with me as I learn where and when you want me to go. But once we get it figured out together, I’ll be such a good girl!<br/><br/>DO YOU LIKE WATER?<br/>If you are speaking of a warm bubble bath, sure.<br/><br/>WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?<br/>Having a place to sleep and get regular meals is just the best. And having a playful companion is the super best part!<br/><br/>It is nice that they are patient with me and help me learn how to be a good pup!<br/><br/>IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOUR FUTURE ADOPTER?<br/>I’m SO ready to find out how much fun life can be with my forever family! I’m really excited to be part of a family of my own. Will you please take me home and love me forever? <br/><br/>**OPAL’S ADOPTION FEE IS $300**<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Opal, please jump on our website and fill out an adoption application - www.norcalbullybreedrescue.org<br/><br/>At this time, we are asking for adopters to be in the Sacramento and IMMEDIATE surrounding areas (which means Sacramento County, parts of El Dorado County and parts of Placer County).<br/><br/>For more information on what that means and why that is, please click on the following link:<br/>https://www.facebook.com/333019703483910/posts/3264412130344638/?extid=0&d=n

NorCal Bully Breed Rescue's Adoption Policy
**We are currently only adopting out to the immediate Sacramento area which includes Sacramento County, parts of Placer County and parts of ElDorado County. We currently hold adoption events once a month at the Pet Food Express store in the Roseville Fountains. Please check our Facebook page for announcements! ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in the adoption process is the completion of our online adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.norcalbullybreedrescue.org. **Your application will not be reviewed if you do not live with the immediate Sacramento area which is Sacramento County, parts of Placer County or some parts of Eldorado County) The second step is the home check. Our main priority in this step is insuring that your yard is 100% secure - there can be no loose boards or gaps in your fencing. If your dog is going to be spending anytime outside while you are at work or away from home, we ask that you have adequate shade or shelter from the elements. Before we schedule a home check, we may ask you to send us photos of your yard/fencing to get an idea of where the dog will be living. If you have any hesitation or questions about our yard check, please see our section on "How to Prepare for a Home Check." The last step in the adoption process is the meet and greet. This is where we meet with you and any existing pets to ensure proper introductions are made. We want to make sure everyone gets along. Once all introductions are made, and everyone gets along, your rescue dog is yours to adopt. Please note that there is no pressure involved, and if situation that cannot be resolved arises, we will always take our dog back. Also, be aware that there is an acclimation period for each dog and every dog is different. It can take a few days or a few weeks for your new dogs to settle in. We will assist in any way possible, including referring our trainer to come work with you and the dog. ADOPTION PREREQUISITES: All of our dogs are rescues, meaning they have already needed help in some way, and will only to to homes where they will live a "CHARMED LIFE." All of our adoptive dogs will be indoor dogs with outdoor privileges. We believe that dogs are family members, and should be allowed to sleep indoors. The only time they should be kept outdoors is if the weather permits. Any applications looking for an outdoor only dog will be denied. All current pets in your home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and one heartworm preventive. Out of area adoptions are within reason and on a case-by-case basis. HOW TO PREPARE FOR A HOME CHECK: Walk the perimeter of your yard. Take notes on the condition of your fence. Are there any loose boards or gaps under any sections of you fencing? If yes, these are easy fixes. You can nail any loose board back into place, and you can fill any gaps with pavers and gravel Do you have a lock on your gate? If not, please purchase one prior to your home check. Is there adequate shade or shelter for your new dog if it is going to be left outdoors while you're at work? Do you have anything hazardous in your yard, i.e. nails sticking out, chemicals left out, etc? Do you have a cat? If so, does your cat have a high spot it can retreat to if being chased? Are your garbage cans located somewhere near a gate where a dog can jump into them to get out? If so please move them. Please address these issues prior to our visit. ADOPTION FEES: All of our dogs will be spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped prior to being adopted. Our adoption fees are considered to be donations. All donations from adoption go right back into our rescue account, allowing us to continue to help dogs in need. At the bare minimum, the cost to properly vet a dog is $100. But some of the dogs we take on are medical cases, which can cost several thousand dollars. Because of this, we ask the following adoption fees: $500 for puppies, which are any dogs under a year old $300 for most adult dog aged 1 year or older. (French/English Bulldogs have significantly higher adoption fees which are explained on our website.)
