Opal's Story

Meet Opal!<br/><br/>Prepare to fall head over heels for Opal! This gentle soul is truly the "sweetest potato" you'll ever meet. For her entire life, Opal resided at another rescue nearby. When that rescue made the difficult decision to close, Opal found her way to us, and we are determined to find her the loving family she so deserves.<br/><br/>Opal is an absolute sweetheart who thrives on affection. Her favorite things in the world are gentle pets, leisurely walks, and simply being near her people. You'll often find her nudging your hand or leaning against your leg – physical touch brings her immense comfort and reassurance. After spending so long waiting, she's ready to soak up all the love you have to offer!<br/><br/>This lovely lady also has a big heart for her fellow canines! Opal gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would enjoy having a furry friend in her new home or just taking all the affection for herself!<br/><br/>While Opal's medical assessment is excellent, she does have low thyroid levels. This is easily managed with a daily pill. This minor health concern doesn't slow her down one bit and certainly doesn't diminish her incredible sweetness! Treating this condition will also help her manage her weight.<br/><br/>Opal has waited long enough for her forever home. She's a resilient, loving, and truly special dog who deserves to finally experience the joy of a family to call her own. If you're looking for a devoted, gentle companion, please consider opening your heart and home to our sweet Opal.<br/><br/>Age: Approximately 7 years old<br/>Breed: Terrier/Shepherd mix<br/>Size: Medium <br/>Location: Saving Grace Rescue LBK in Wilson, TX<br/><br/>Could you be the one to finally give this deserving girl the happy ending she's been waiting for?<br/><br/>Watch more videos of her here (copy and paste in browser): https://youtube.com/shorts/NLfXH-xpVlA?feature=share<br/>https://youtube.com/shorts/bK4oep7yFZ8?feature=share<br/><br/>Photo Credits: IG - saracaswellphoto and photographsbyphilip<br/><br/>****************************************************************************************************<br/>For out-of-state adoptions:<br/><br/>Cat homes: If the dog has not lived in a foster home with cats, the home will not be considered since we can not safely say they are good with cats.

Saving Grace Rescue LBK's Adoption Policy
Our adoption fee is $225 (locally). This fee goes toward the cost of our vetting expenses for the dog, which includes the dog being spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. We require an application and home visit for adoption of one of our dogs. We want to ensure our dogs are placed in forever homes and are not in a situation that would be unsafe for the dog or perpetuate the misconceptions surrounding Pit Bulls. We prefer that adopters be at least 21 years old, but we will consider applicants under 21 on a case by case basis - so please still fill out an application. Please keep in mind that we know our dogs well; behavior, temperament, special needs, etc. Any decisions we make are in trying to do what's best for our dogs and the homes that we adopt them into. **If you are adopting out of state and we are sending a dog for adoption through our partner, Project Freedom Ride, the adoption fee is $500 which covers all vetting requirements and transport costs.**
