EMERSON (US, N Mex) yo, BOND w/ Debbie

Good day. I am Emerson and here is a bit about me:Breed: Pitbull terrier mixAge: 3 yearsGender: FemaleWeight: 50 lbsHeight: 20 inchesCountry of origin: US, New MexicoHighlights: Zen, tolerant, steady, gentle, timid, loving, playfulWhile I am a bit timid yet, I am loving and playful too. I'm actually kind of the zen girl.Surrendered by a man along with my sister, Debbie (also posted) to the shelter on 4/3/25. My sis was pregnant and gave birth to three puppies the very next day. A rescue stepped up to help, but in very different ways. Debbie and her three puppies were immediately taken in by a foster Mom. The shelter only gives dogs 14 days for adoption, and so I was to be killed on 4/18. The horror. Foster parents agreed to take me in at the last minute and so I came to their house on the 18th. Phew. In early August, Debbie's foster Mom had a family emergency, so my foster parents agreed to take Debbie and get us sisters back together. Debbie came to our house on 8/9/25. Since that time, we have blossomed. Our fosters have two dogs and all four of us get along very well, often spending our days in the sunny yard and the evenings on a warm couch by the fire.I tend to be more comfortable with my foster mom, and Debbie is more comfortable with foster dad. We love to go on walks and are leash-trained without any issues. We both know to use the dog door and have never had any accidents indoors. Our foster folks have an open-door crate available and both of us will fit ourselves in together, unless a couch is available. If we can access a couch, all bets are off!! LOL. We will sleep on one of the couches for hours, cuddling with, and sometimes sleeping on top of, each other!Me, I like to play chase with the other dogs. Run, tricky evasive moves, catch them. Lots of tail-wagging fun.We are much more comfortable with people inside our home. Out in the yard, we both still run away from our fosters, although I will come to foster mom for treats and Debbie has just recently started letting foster dad pet her outside. Basically, we have been spending our days in the yard & our evenings with in the living room, and our nights on a couch with foster dad. I love walks too.Both of us appear to be in excellent health and without any known health issues. We are both still quite timid though and cautious around people, especially during times of transition when people are moving about. We are making progress every day and our fosters are confident we will both make remarkable companions for the lucky human(s) who adopt us. Our foster has stated that we are fairly dependent on each other for feeling safe and it could take longer for us to come out of our shell and settle if adopted individually, just so you know.We will thrive with a patient, loving owner. If you happen to have znother sibling fir us, we are. Totally cool with that too. I appear trainable and smart. I am in the VERY early stages of sit and come. I know how to use a doggie door, if you have one.Extra vids: https://youtube.com/shorts/lKGLjQlLypA, https://youtube.com/shorts/NaEE4-PyATwEnergy Level: ModerateI get along with:Dogs: absolute yes.Cats: UnknownKids: UnknownFears: Extremely cautious around people yet, especially during times when people are moving around.

Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue.Please Note: LALDR highly encourages adopters to research some local dog trainers before their dog arrives. Although a 1-on-1 trainer is often not needed, it is good to have someone in mind in case any problematic behaviours arise. Most bad behaviours can be modified if caught early enough, so make sure to nip undesirable behaviours in the bud before they become serious problems.Basic training should be taken seriously, but should not begin until your dog is well settled in - at least a couple of weeks. After you feel your new dog is relaxed and comfortable in their new home, check out training courses in your local area. Even basic beginner courses like those taught at a local pet store can have a huge benefit in helping your dog learn to socialize and get used to being in public situations, all with the added benefit of strengthening their bond with you.Normally, we will not approve adoptions to homes with children under 12 years of age. However if a dog has been determined to be good with children we will approve applicants with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website.The age and breed of a dog is usually an educated guess, so we are not able to guarantee the accuracy of age or breed of our dogs.Information included in the profile is provided to us from the international rescuer or local fosters. LALDR does not have access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person adopting them and the environment in which they live.While most dogs find escorting passengers flying directly to Vancouver, some will find flights through Toronto or Montreal. In that case, additional fees will apply to fly your dog to Vancouver by cargo. Unaccompanied cargo costs within Canada range from $350 - $550 depending on the size of the dog. LALDR will be as transparent as possible with you regarding these costs. You will NOT be asked to pay a passenger fee on top of the cargo fee.[MID-EAST] *Vaccinations: Dogs from the Middle East are vaccinated for rabies, parvo, distemper, leptospirosis, adenovirus type 1 and para-influenza. Bordetella is not given, as that has not been a problem in the Middle East.[TURKEY] Dogs from Turkey receive a 4D SNAP test to include Leishmania, Heartworm, Ehrlichia, & Anaplasma, as well as Giardia, Parvo, Corona & Distemper.
