It is time for you to meet Emma. Many of you know her story already. This was the young pregnant momma dog who had been tied to a pole when her "owners" moved out of their trailer home. She had been left to fend for herself while very pregnant-in the freezing cold of November-without food or water!

It is illegal to "chain" your dog in Dallas. However, no one seems to know who the owner was or where he went. This makes if very difficult to prosecute the perpetrator since he cannot be found.

A very nice man who lives in the in the trailer park, Emma's Guardian Angel, took her off the chain and started feeing her. Soon, she delivered 7 puppies in an old torn up couch cushion on the front porch of the home where she had been abandoned- in the bitter cold. Her Guardian Angel brought the new family to his yard where he provided Emma and her puppies with food and shelter until he called on us to help save them all. The day we received the call to help with Emma, the temperature that night was expected to be below freezing. So we went out and scooped everyone up and as of this date, all of her puppies have been adopted.

Emma has been living in a VERY LOVING foster home where she now has a mom and dad and two teenage humans too play with as well as two adult labs! Her foster mom reports that Emma is doing GREAT and has fit right in. Because Emma is doing so well, it is now time for her to find a forever home of her own.

Emma is a one year old black with white lab/sharpei mix. She is a medium size dog weighing in at 40 pounds. She has been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. She is also heart worm negative. She is house trained and crate trained (although her foster mom reports she really does not need a crate). She is a very happy waggy dog. We expect her to do well in a home where someone is home more than not and where there is another dog for her to play with.
