Emma is looking for her forever human!
Emma is about 5 years old, mixed hound breed. She is about kg and cm shoulder height. She is kind to people, she had no experience with small dogs and cats, but based on the hound breed type I would say it is not a good idea to keep her with small animals. She has a couple of very best dog friends, and she doesn't want to meet other dogs and spend time playing. She is extremely self-sufficient dog. She is not super active and not annoying, but for sure she likes walking around and spending time with people. She is calm, with new people she is suspicious as almost all people and animals. She needs a couple of days to get used to a new environment. And in 1 week time she will be your best friend! Now Emma has individual training sessions 2 times per week with a dog trainer. She knows how to sit, lay, heel, stop, come. Unfortunately she wasn’t trained in German or English, but based on an experience dogs catch language very fast, mostly with the help of sign and intonation. She made very good progress with a trainer and she shows willingness to learn more. It looks like she understands that all her future life will depend on the progress in trainings. She is clean, has walking 3 times per day. She doesn’t damage things when she has sufficient toys and chewing sticks in order not to feel bored alone. Emma was rescued a couple of years ago, she was starving and exhausted. Luckily based on blood tests and veterinarian inspection she was healthy. However, this pretty girl ended up in the shelter and spent there 2 years until she was reallocated to a foster family with constant training in order to increase her chances of being adopted. Emma is still very kind and trusts people so much. She likes to give hugs and tries to kiss her people, however she is not fully aware how to kiss and she confuses it with catching a nose:) It is something that her dog trainer is trying to reduce. Currently we are looking for a family with no kids or grown up children, and no cats or dogs. The potential family should have enough time to spend with a dog, should have experience in raising similar breeds / mixed breeds, and should have a desire and possibility to attend dog trainings. Emma is vaccinated, dewormed, chipped and has international passport. In a couple of weeks Emma is coming from a foreign shelter and will be available for visiting and adoption in Frankfurt in a mid / end of March, or earlier if there is a family that would like to adopt her earlier right away from the shelter or foster her for 3-4 weeks. In Frankfurt Emma will be under supervision of German volunteering community. The adoption may be possible only to English speaking people based on animal welfare contract after personal meeting. A requirement will be an option to visit a dog in a new family in agreed time and receive photos once in 3-4 weeks. More photos and videos are available upon request, visiting and meeting may be possible in Frankfurt. She is so in need of the family, whom she can start trust and give all of her love. Please consider to take her home!
