My personality

My story

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

Meet Hines! This sweet, playful boy is around 5 months old and weighs around 53 lbs. We believe he will be very large when full grown. He is a mix of Border Collie, Lab and Great Dane mix. Hines is crate trained, and doing well with the house training. He lives with other foster dogs and cats and does great with them. Hines has been around children from the age of 4 to 13 and does great, although he is large and the younger children may get knocked down until he has fully learned his manners. He is working on commands, Hines is smart, food motivated and ready to have a family to have as his own. This boy would be a good hiking buddy, as he loves to explore.



The money collected covers any medical treatments the dog may have had while in our care. All of our dogs are altered (spayed/neutered), have had all shots (age appropriate in the case of puppies) including Bordetella (kennel cough), rabies, and the distemper/parvo series. Dogs have been heart worm screened and are heart worm negative, have had a clear fecal exam and are up to date on Frontline and Heartgard. Adopters will receive copies of all vet records, rabies certification, and tags. The adoption fee also covers all transport and health certificate costs we incur. Dogs from out of state travel on USDA inspected humane, healthy, & sanitary animal transport professionals.
Disclaimer: Please note that the breeds posted on our dogs' biographies are our best guess based on years of working with rescue dogs. Adopters who need to know the exact breed or mix of breeds of a particular dog must have the dog's DNA tested at their own expense.

More about this rescue

Emily's Friends Rescue Group  is a charitable organization dedicated to rescuing homeless companion animals. We particularly try and take in dogs from high-kill shelters, assist owners who can no longer care for their animals as well as animals in abusive or neglectful situations.

Working with loyal volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians, trainers, and boarding facilities, we are able to rescue many animals each year. We provide them with food, nurture,  love and medical attention while they are in our temporary care.  We then find them well-matched, carefully screened forever homes.

All animals are  spayed or neutered and brought up-to-date on shots before being placed in their new homes. We support and promote spaying and neutering of all cats and dogs to help control the pet overpopulation and promote education of the public about responsible pet ownership.
