In the shelter’s words

Finding yourself in rescue is always a good thing but being born into rescue, aside from being born into a loving family, is a blessing. Emeka and his siblings benefited from such a situation. They started out being loved and cared for and their journey will continue to provide wonderful things. They are 3-month-old hound mix pups looking forward to their bright future. Emeka is 17 pounds and we know that growing is in his future. It is estimated that he will be a medium-size dog ranging from 30 to 60 pounds. He will be the right size to share a sofa and even a bed. No matter what size he becomes he will always fit into the heart of his family members.His likes are on a long list of fun, exciting and entertaining activities. Emeka is ready to mingle with his fully puppy spirit and energy. He enjoys the company of other dogs, children and adults. There is no limit to his love. He has not had the opportunity to meet a cat since coming into rescue. The joy of puppyhood is nothing short of exciting, fun, challenging and demanding. In the end, the process is always rewarding, and Emeka will grow to be a wonderful canine companion.His skill set is in progress as he works on learning his house, crate and leash training. He is young so he will need time and direction to help him along the way. Life is full a mystery and surprises. Emeka is a little bit of both. Welcome him into your world and find everything you have been looking for and more. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Emeka is $600. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees.
