My personality

My story

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

✨ Meet Emma — Proof that joy can survive anything ✨

If you want to meet a dog whose soul defies everything she’s been through… meet Emma.
Found as a stray in Mexico with only patches of fur left after severe mange, this little girl is living, wagging proof that happiness lies within, no matter the circumstances.

At just 3.5 years old, Emma has already endured more than most dogs ever will. People walked past her. People looked away. Some still do — because her skin still has a few bald spots, and that’s all they see.

But what they miss is everything that makes Emma extraordinary:

💛 The way she lights up a room with her fast, joyful spins when it’s mealtime
💛 How she leaps with pure happiness every time she sees you
💛 The gentle way she tucks herself against your side, asking for nothing but love
💛 Her resilience, her softness, her unbroken spirit

Emma is still shy and crouches when someone approaches too quickly or when loud noises remind her of a past she should’ve never had. Only she knows what people did to her before she was rescued… but even after all of that, she chose to trust again.

And now she deserves the best home in the whole wide world.
One filled with patience, kindness, tenderness, and someone who understands that healing takes time — but loving her comes easy.

Emma is safe.
She is loved.
And she is ready for her forever person.

If you see her heart before her scars, you’ll never find a more loyal, grateful, or beautiful companion.

1.

Submit Application

Please read carefully before applying. At Juno's Den, the priority is to find homes able, willing and committed to meet our dogs needs.

Interview

If meeting our dog's needs requires to make sacrifices or modify your lifestyle or not all family members are on board, please do not apply.

3.

Home Check

Owning a home with a yard may be the best for some dogs. We don't base our decision on potential adopters having a yard. Depends on the dog.

4.

An approved application may or may not be for the dog you applied for if we believe there is a better match for your family.

6.

Pay Fee

Adoption fee is $550 + $150-$200 (transport fee)

7.

Take the Pet Home

We approved you to adopt one of our dogs. If for any reason you cannot keep our dog, any other potential adopter needs to be approved by us.

Additional adoption info

We require an official ID, at least 3 references and current/prospective veterinary information.

One of our requirements is to periodically be in contact after the adoption and throughout your dog's life.

Our process is very thorough and we do not offer meet and greets at this time.

If after reviewing your application, we believe one of our dogs is a good fit for your family, we will be in touch for an interview.

Thank you
