Story
Emma
Black Mouth Cur/ American Pitbull Terrier Mix
Female
1.5 years old
42 lbs.
Meet Emma, a charming pooch full of love and affection! She's an incredibly sweet dog who adores humans of all kinds. Emma is a cuddle enthusiast, always seeking scratches and kisses. She's medium-energy, but equally content to spend the day lounging and recharging with naps. She's the perfect match for those seeking a young, calm and incredibly affectionate dog that adores snuggling, without the challenges of puppyhood.
Emma's excitement is palpable—she showcases a happy wiggle butt when greeting you and flashes a toothy smile when she's thrilled. Outdoors, she unleashes her playful side with zoomies, but is also a fan of cozy cuddles and scratches. While she hasn't had extensive training, she's proficient on a leash and is fantastic on both walks and runs. She knows basic commands like “wait”, “sit” and “ok” and is fully house-trained and crate trained. Barking is a rare occurrence for her. Emma is very eager to be where you are, but understands when you need your space. She has great manners and is a tidy eater—no need to worry about any counter surfing with her!
Emma prefers the company of humans so she would like to be your one and only pet. But her abundant personality and affection mean that having her as the only pet in your home will be incredibly fulfilling – you won't feel the need for another furry companion! It's important for her to be in a home where she can receive the individual attention and training she needs to manage her interactions with other pets. She's a hit with kids over 8, but her playful energy might be a bit much for younger ones—she's just so excited to play that she might accidentally knock them over! She's also very friendly with new people and just needs a bit of help in managing her excitement.
Emma is a playful soul and would adore chew toys, enjoys chasing balls/frisbees, relishes tug-of-war and adores treat puzzles. She shows enthusiasm for food and is trainable, although she's in the process of learning and could benefit from more practice. Emma, the loving canine, seeks a supportive and attentive family to assist her in blooming and experiencing her best life as an adored pet. She looks forward to relishing walks and hikes, embracing the spirit of a true Colorado dog!
