About Emmy

Emmy is a charming 9-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, known for her sweet and laid-back personality. She's part of a bonded pair with Sammy, and their affection for each other is clear to see. While Emmy tends to be a bit shy at first, she loves to be close to her human companions, happily curling up beside you. Sammy, on the other hand, is more outgoing and enjoys playing with toys. Both dogs are crate trained and do well on leashes, making them great walking partners. They get along well with other small dogs and are indifferent to cats, which adds to their charm. With children aged 8-12, they've shown friendliness and warmth. It's important to feed them separately since Emmy has a tendency to finish her food and then eye Sammy's bowl. They are in the process of learning potty training; with some attention, they're making progress but currently don’t signal when they need to go out. Adopting Emmy and Sammy means welcoming two loving companions into your home. They must be adopted together to ensure their bond stays strong. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
