Emerald Jade (aka Emmy) CURRENTLY IN FOSTER!
2 years old | 48 lbs | Spayed female
After four months in a shelter kennel, Emmy is finally showing her real self, and she is a sweetheart. She's a sweet, playful, people-loving girl who is ready for her own family and some adventures.
At home
She settled in almost right away. Emmy is nearly perfect on potty training (one accident in her first 24 hours, none since) and sleeps through the night in her crate. She's still learning to be comfortable in the crate when left alone, so it's a work in progress. She loves to snuggle on the sofa, follows her people from room to room, and is very food and treat motivated.
Play and exercise
Emmy is bright, happy, and full of energy. She loves tug, is learning fetch, adores toys (plush and hard), and has epic zoomies. She would make a great running or hiking buddy for an active adopter.
Out and about
Emmy has been to a voting booth, restaurants, stores, and dog-friendly patios. She can be nervous at first, but she settles quickly, even with kids running past and dogs nearby. She even nudges strangers for pets. She is pretty good on leash, stays close on walks, and hops in and out of the car on her own.
Other dogs
Emmy is not reactive to other dogs on walks. She lives with two senior dogs in her foster home, and one of the resident dogs doesn't like to share, so we manage food and resources, and it's going well. She would love a playful dog buddy, but she's also happy as an only dog.
What she needs
Emmy is a sensitive girl. New places, sudden sounds, and even a car door can startle her at first, though she bounces back quickly. She'll do best with a patient, loving adopter who will give her time to settle and keep building her confidence.
Emmy is a happy, affectionate girl who just needs her person. Could that be you?
