This is a difficult decision, but due to upcoming changes in our work and school schedules, we can no longer provide the environment she needs.
About Opa

-

-
Medical: She is up to date on vaccines and had a check-up in January. She has no known medical issues and is not spayed.
Reason for Rehoming My husband is a firefighter working 24-36 hour shifts, and I am a nursing student about to begin 12-hour clinical rotations as well as 10 hour lectures. We have consulted with trainers, and they determined that Opa suffers from anxiety and requires an owner who is home the majority of the time. Unfortunately, daycare and boarding are not within our budget, and we do not have local support to care for her during these long hours.
Support for New Owner We are willing to make a monetary donation to the rescue. We also have a Roughland Kennel and training collars that we would love to pass on to her new family.
