Emery German Shepherd Dog Mix West Des Moines, IA

Gorgeous Emery is a 3.5 yr old German Shepherd girl who lives with 4 cats, and is good with dogs, and kids of all ages. She loves people, and thrives on affection.

Emery is highly intelligent, and extremely affectionate big baby, who is also housebroken, and easily trainable. However, she got surrendered to our rescue as her former owner works two jobs and is out for 12-14 hours everyday, leaving Emery to fend for herself all day alone. She would try to play with the kitties but they did not care. So, Emery would sit by the window all day and wait for her human. As expected, the poor girl gets super excited when her current foster comes home after being alone in a room for 14 hours, and jumps on her, runs to the kitties to be smacked across her face, and wants to go out. That's why we are looking for a German shepherd experienced home where she will have company most of the day, and will not have to live alone all day again.

Emery loves humans and will snuggle with them at any given chance. She will love to be an only dog as she really is more about humans than her furry companions. She is a star at the pet hotel and vet clinics. She used to love going to dog parks but she would get scared of the bigger dogs, and therefore the trips stopped. We prefer that she goes to a home with no other dog.

Emery's former owner did not have the time or funds to train her. She did not get walked, so she may pull on the leash at this time. But being highly intelligent, and trainable, she can be taught not to do so pretty fast.

Emery has been suffering from dry eye syndrome in one eye for the past two year, which her owner's vet had incorrectly misdiagnosed as conjunctivitis and then allergy. It was not until she went to our rescue vet and did a few tests, that it was correctly diagnosed and she started getting medication to produce tears again. Adopters need to keep her on this medicine until she is healed.

Emery loves bellyrubs, and cuddles. She has zoomies every now and then, because she gets so happy when her foster mom come home from work. Emeery gets very

Emery is being fostered in Houston, TX but can be transported to many states in the USA and Canada. German shepherd experience is mandatory to adopt our GSDs.

Emery currently weighs 93 lbs as she is getting no exercise in her current situation. She gained 20 lb in the last two years alone and we need a home where she can get her walks and proper diet to lose the excessive weight.
She is fully vaccinated, spayed, microchipped. and heartworm negative. She is kept on heartworm and flea preventative.
