Name: Emma
Breed: Black Mouth Cur
Sex: Spayed Female
Age: 2.5 years
Weight: 42 lbs
Needs Experienced Adopter
Good with dogs? No, Emma is nervous around dogs in general and is happy as a solo pet. She needs to be away from other dogs, both at home and in social situations.
Good with cats? No
Good with kids? Yes, kids 8+ due to her excitable play energy.
Energy level: Moderate. Emma enjoys chew toys, chasing balls and frisbees, tug-of-war games and yummy treat puzzles. When she is not playing, she is very chill, calm and peaceful.
Behavioral needs: Emma was rescued from an abusive situation and is very anxious about meeting other dogs and can go into “flight or fight” mode. She needs a patient adopter who can take loving care to keep her feeling safe, and help her learn to manage her anxiety around interactions with other pets.
Animal Characteristics: Emma is an affectionate, loving, sweet, mature, self-sufficient dog who can happily hang out with her humans or relax alone at home while her family is at work. She has good house manners, is a tidy eater, is crate trained, has excellent potty skills, rarely barks and has no destructive habits. She walks, hikes and runs well on a leash, and knows basic commands. Emma is a cuddle enthusiast and is always seeking scratches and kisses, and while she loves to be where you are, she understands when you need your space. She is very friendly with new people and just needs a bit of help managing her excitement! If you are a fan of cute, wiggly butts and joyful, tooth grins, Emma’s your girl, and is the only pet you need!
