About Emma

Emma, often called the Cuddle Bug, is about five years old and just 56 pounds—a sweet spot if you want a companion that’s easy to share the couch with. She might seem a bit shy around new people and changes, but given some time and steady encouragement, she'll open up and show what a loving friend she can be. Since settling in with her foster, Emma has started enjoying outings for walks, car rides, and even some laid-back trips to local stores where she takes in the sights and sounds. Another calm dog at home does wonders for her confidence and—though Emma is both potty trained and comfortable behind a baby gate—she prefers it over the crate. She hasn’t shown any destructive habits. Emma relaxes best in a home where someone is around at least part of the day. She’s wary of sudden movements, but responds well when people are gentle and patient. She knows several basic commands already, and her energy level lands right between calm and playful, making her an adaptable addition to most homes. Emma is ready for her next chapter and welcomes adopters throughout Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
