Ophelia

Description

Meet Ophelia: One-Eyed, Opinionated & Officially Retired At 9 years young, Ophelia has entered her retirement era—and frankly, she thinks she’s earned it. This charming Pekingese mix is looking for a home where the schedule is flexible, the laps are plentiful, and no one expects her to participate in unnecessary nonsense. Ophelia enjoys relaxing, being adored, and sharing her opinions when she feels they are relevant. (Spoiler: she generally feels they are relevant.) Ophelia is an independent woman who knows what she wants. She doesn’t need constant attention, but when she decides it’s time for affection, she makes an excellent lap dog. Her ideal family will understand that sometimes a lady just needs a little space to herself—and sometimes she needs your entire lap immediately. Yes, Ophelia only has **one eye**, but don’t worry: she can still spot foolishness from across the room. We think it simply adds to her distinguished, slightly mysterious charm. Like many sophisticated ladies of a certain age, Ophelia takes a few daily medications to keep her feeling her best. She considers them part of her wellness routine and would appreciate a personal assistant willing to keep up with her regimen. If your idea of the perfect companion is a low-key senior lady with a big personality, an independent streak, and excellent lap-dog potential, Ophelia may be ready to grace your home with her presence. Ophelia isn’t looking for someone to change her. She’s looking for someone who appreciates the masterpiece she already is.
