Meet Pet of the Week Emma

June 19th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Our featured pet this week is Emma.  She has been in and out of the Seattle Animal Shelter for 2 years now, and the folks that work there love her so much they refuse to give up on her.

Emma would make a wonderful  companion.  She does have some anxiety, and does not like to be away from her caretakers, likely as a result of being shuffled around as much as she has.

Emma is about 4 years old, a stellar athlete, very intelligent, a bit of a clown, affectionate, and housebroken.  She loves people, excursions to Discovery Park, Tiger Mountain, and just about any place to  walk or hike. She also loves to play tug-of-war with her favorite toy. She is spayed, micro-chipped, and had all her shots.

Emma’s ideal family would be patient, completely dedicated, have prior dog and/or pit bull terrier experience, enjoy exercising her twice daily, be at home a lot, and/or have the ability to take her almost everywhere with them. A cat-free home is best, but she may be fine living with a mellow, male dog. Emma is ready to put roots down with a family that will love her as much as she will love them.  Timeis running out for Emma and she needs a hero to save her life.

Emma is temporarily staying in one of the shelter’s foster homes and is not at the shelter.  If you would like to meet and possibly adopt this wonderful dog, fill out a Dog Adoption Application (download here)  and email it to the Seattle Animal Shelter Foster Dog Program. You can also fax it to 206-386-4285 or drop it off at the shelter.
