My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Emi is less than a year old (born 5-2013, we think), female, spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, house trained, and crate trained.

Emi was actually found by Virginia German Shepherd Rescue when they were out looking for one of their dogs who escaped in the Bay View area of Norfolk, VA. She was found soaking in the rain with nothing but a rusty choke chain. All the hair had been rubbed away, she was very skinny, and had talons for nails; we assume she had been chained out somewhere. The other rescue held her for 14 days, filing reports with local animal control and shelter, and even placing an ad on Craigslist, but no one came forward to claim her. She has now been transferred into our care.

Emi is very dog social; she LOVES doggy daycare! She is a high energy young girl who is learning how to be an indoor dog. We are still working on the leash training! She would be happiest in a home with another large dog to play with!
