Opie is an 11 week old male golden puppy. We actually got him when he was 5 weeks old when a man brought him to a shelter and said someone had given him the pup as a present and he didn’t want him. Imagine that? Sometimes people just aren’t ready (or prepared) to be good dog owners. Opie had mange and had to be treated but a family wanted him immediately and adopted him. They nursed him back to health but then decided they did not want to go through raising a puppy. So Opie came back and now we’ve found a family that is ready for him – well, with brother Thor’s paw of approval of course. Opie now has a terrific Dad, a wonderful Mom, two teenage daughters and Thor, a 5 year old black lab. Mom works from home so Opie will have lots of supervision. He has a great big fenced in backyard to play in and just adores his big brother Thor. Mom reports that he is the typical little brother and that he mimics everything his big brother does. Now Thor is just trying to keep his busy little brother in line.
