Meet Opie

Hi! I’m Opie, your new best friend, ready for adventure. I am a flat coated retriever/border collie mix. I’m an incredibly smart, athletic boy who loves walks, fetch, cuddles, a good tennis ball de-fuzzing, and my people! I’m a graduate of Rockin’ E Obedience Class along with lots of other training, and have lots of tricks to show you, such as sitting at every street intersection and making treats disappear. I’m more than a pretty face, I’m great around other respectful dogs, cats and kids, though I do best with slow controlled introductions so that I don’t get too overwhelmed. I am still a young man, so someone willing to work to help guide me to be my best would be ideal! I’m doing very well working on my walking manners: I walk loose-leash, don’t bark, and respond well to commands. I really just want to please my people, and I am an incredible listener. When you talk to me, you will find me watching you and tipping my head side to side making sure I’m getting every last word you say to me. I’m looking for a patient, kind family with lots of tennis balls and maybe another dog friend to play with, though I could be a single dog too! Are you ready for our adventure together?!

Adoption Process

Look for other dogs for adoption!
