EMMA

Please contact foster at [email protected] **NO KIDS UNDER 12 DUE TO NOT KNOWING HER SIZE AND STRENGTH** She LOVES to cuddle and would do best in a home that doesn't have issues with animals on furniture or sleeping in the bed with them. She is house trained and does well being left out alone in the house (i've left her for up to 4 hours so far in my kitchen with food and water). She does not need to be crated and would do best in a home that does not use crates. She has not been introduced one on one to other animals yet, but she does show raised fur when passing animals on walks (without growling or barking) or seeing them through a fence (barks back if she is barked at). Therefore I would recommend if this is your first time owning a dog of this size she be your only dog OR if you are an experienced large dog owner you have the time and patience for slow introductions over a few days or weeks to your other pets. Emma enjoys walks and will turn a walk around the block into an hour expedition if you let her with long breaks for sniffing, but if you use a hands free waist leash with a simple tug she can be moved along. She did well playing fetch in an enclosed tennis court so if you have a fenced in backyard she will happily spend all day back there with you just cruising and laying in the sun. She is a moderate energy dog which to me means she's not going to be your running partner for marathons, but she would love to join you for a two mile walk around the park. She has done well in cars with her longest journey so far being an hour and a half. She will stick her head out the window when not on the interstate and let her jowls flap in the wind. It's pretty adorable.
