Emma

About Emma (Labrador retriever) in Cuba

Emma is waiting for you at Joyful Rescues, Inc. in Cuba, NY 14727. Emma was born November 4, 2018 and weighs about 77 lbs. She is a very pretty girl with the absolute sweetest face and the best curls all over her back! She is openly friendly and does wonderfully with other dogs and cats alike. She came to us after her human mom passed away unexpectedly and her human dad, working full time, was unable to handle the 4 large dogs especially in the city environment. It didn't take long for her to realize more grass and less concrete is a pretty good thing and that swimming is a blast! Emma is all in and will fly through the air to retrieve a toy thrown into the water. She will even run and fly off the dock with pure abandon! Emma has been around visiting children and was fine. Emma is house trained, does pretty well on leash unless she is quite excited as she was when she arrived here and can be quite strong. Emma does fine in the car even on her two hour journey here to Joyful Rescues. We are told if she is off leash she should hang around you while you do your outside chores and she did grow up in a fenced yard with a wading pool in the driveway during summer. Emma has grown up with another dog and would like a dog buddy in her next life, but we feel she'd be ok as an only dog if her human is around much of the time. If there is another dog she should be fed separately as she does show some food anxiety at times with other dogs. Many years ago Emma did have an episode of heat stroke and it took quite a bit to save her life so going forward this should be kept in mind so as not to let her over do in the heat of summer. Emma is a really happy, social, sweet girl that is homeless through no fault of her own and she hopes to hear from you soon! The Adoption Fee for this dog is $_500.00_______. Adoptions fees vary based on adoptability. In general our fees include spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccines, Home Again micro-chipping & registration, worming
