Princess Emerald, a 6-year-old extra-long dachshund mix, weighs in at 15 pounds and has a sweet, loyal nature. Her foster mom can't resist her soft ears, and Princess Emerald soaks up every bit of affection. She wants nothing more than to be close to her person and is deeply eager to please. Smart and quick to adapt, she has already learned the household routine and responds to her name. Loud noises and quick movements can startle her, so she thrives most in a calm, gentle environment. She gets along with the calm, older dog in her foster home and is both house broken and familiar with potty pads. She had a doggie door in her previous living arrangement, which made bathroom routines easy. Princess Emerald prefers to sleep on a big, soft bed near her family rather than jump on furniture due to her long back; a ramp is a plus, but the floor is safest. She is crate trained as well. Emerald should do very well with respectful children, and she’d love a quiet, loving household in San Antonio, TX or surrounding areas. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
