Aussie rescue needs forever home

Santa Barbara CA

Description

Need a loving home for Opus, a 10-year-old Aussie, special needs rescue. He is very sweet, beautiful, affectionate, very soft to touch, with the best ears ever. He is in excellent health, very well cared for, with plenty of vitality. Opus was born deaf and blind in one eye. He is trained to respond to hand signals. He comes with coaching available with a dog trainer to help acclimate to his new home. Loves people, unless you are the gardener invading his territory. With his limited perception, if approached too quickly, (like a puppy might), he can go on the defensive. He is okay with dogs his own size or smaller but not with cats. He would most love being an only pet with a yard and some walks. If with other pets he needs a master who is good setting alpha boundaries.
