About Emery Hiking Bestie

Meet Emery, affectionately known as Emmy. This lovely Greyhound and American Staffordshire Terrier mix weighs 47 lbs and was born on September 19, 2024. Her playful spirit shines through her love for dressing up, having donned both a vampire and a witch costume this Halloween; she relishes posing for pictures. Emery's foster family shares that she’s gentle when taking treats and has a calm demeanor around those she trusts. She's treat-motivated, making her training sessions enjoyable. Car rides are a favorite, and she behaves well while traveling. Living with other dogs, Emery enjoys playtime, but she does have a high energy level, making her the ideal companion for hiking or running. She can be wary of men, so she’ll thrive with a patient owner who can help her transition to a life free from past hardships. This sweet girl was rescued from overcrowding at a county shelter where she was facing euthanasia despite her vibrant personality. Emery is spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and both kennel and potty trained. She gets along well with other dogs but does not do well with cats or young children. She's currently located in Chambersburg, PA. Are you ready to bring Emery into your life? Click apply to start the adoption process.
