Opal

Meet Opal, a lovable three-and-a-half-year-old American Pitbull Terrier from Oklahoma City, OK, whose heart is as big as her beautiful blue eyes! With a stunning tan-and-white coat and a playful spirit, Opal is the ultimate companion for someone looking for a loyal, affectionate best friend.

Opal is all about her people—she absolutely adores humans and thrives on attention, cuddles, and quality time. Whether it’s curling up beside you for a cozy movie night or zooming around the yard with joyful enthusiasm, she’s happiest when she’s part of the action. She’s got energy to spare, so daily walks, play sessions, and adventures in the car are right up her alley! A fenced yard where she can stretch her legs would be perfect for her, but more than anything, she just wants to be included in her family’s life.

This clever girl already knows several commands—sit, shake, stay, lay down, and come—showcasing her intelligence and eagerness to please. While she would benefit from continued training, her affectionate nature and love for treats make her a wonderful student! Opal is also spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and house-trained.

Opal is best suited to a home where she’s the only dog, as she prefers to soak up all the attention for herself. She does great with people, including young children, and she’s always ready to greet new friends with tail wags and happy energy. However, she isn’t comfortable around other dogs, so much so she'll even bite at them. For that reason, she’ll need a home where she can be the sole canine star!

With her affectionate personality, cuddly nature, and playful spirit, Opal is ready to bring endless love and companionship to her next loving family! Could she be the perfect match for you? Reach out to learn more about welcoming Opal into your life!
