Emmy is a calm and intelligent Labrador mix who makes wonderful, steady companionship. She has a gentle personality and enjoys being by your side, whether at home or on the road. She does well with other dogs and children. Emmy is sociable, though she can be a little nervous, especially around people she does not know at first. With patience and gentle introductions, she relaxes and shows her sweet, trusting nature. Emmy enjoys car rides and travels calmly, taking in the journey at her own peaceful pace. She is very tranquil, thoughtful, and attentive, making her a lovely companion for a family or individual looking for a loyal friend. Emmy was rescued along with her four siblings after being born underneath a house in ruins during freezing weather. They were in serious danger, but thanks to rescue and care, Emmy survived and grew into the beautiful dog she is today.
Ideal Home
We are looking for a home with a fenced backyard and an active family that enjoys outdoor activities. Families with an open conscience about the rescue of street animals, their need for protection and education, and with experience in dog behavior and training are ideal. Emmy requires patience and tolerance for rescued puppies.
Ongoing Health
Emmy has been spayed, vaccinated for DHPPI, Rabies, and Bordetella, dewormed, and tested negative for heartworm. She has a health certificate and vaccination booklet.
Training & Support
Emmy is not house-trained. We understand that due to the overwhelming number of rescues needing care, it's impossible for us to house-train each one. We are looking for adopters with experience in dog behavior and training who can provide the necessary guidance and patience for Emmy to succeed.
