Story

Meet Emmett! Emmett is a unique and striking mix of corgi, heeler, and husky; about 7 years old and full of personality. We adopted him back in 2019 before we had kids or other pets, and he was an amazing companion during that stage of life. As our family has grown, we've come to realize that Emmett thrives best in a quieter environment where he can get plenty of one-on-one attention, structure, and regular exercise. He's an intelligent and curious dog who loves to explore, so a secure yard or someone experienced with active breeds would be ideal. Emmett is affectionate, loyal, alert, and definitely has a mischievous streak. He can be food-motivated and benefits from consistent boundaries. While he has some behavioral quirks, we believe that with the right person who understands the needs of working breeds- he'll be a fantastic companion. We truly want the best for Emmett and are hoping to find a home thats a better fit for his energy and needs.
