Emmett came to us on 09/29/10 and is a very sweet 1 year-old boy.

Our handsome young Emmett needs a forever home. Emmet is a sweet, well-behaved young man who would be a wonderful therapy dog. He adores attention and is very affectionate. He walks nicely on a leash and is polite to everyone he meets. 

He plays nicely with both large and small dogs. He knows to play with his toys and does not chew on inappropriate items. 

Emmet would love to have a forever home with another dog he can play with. He likes to snuggle up with the other dogs in his foster home and go to sleep. If he cannot find a willing cuddle partner, he will sleep with his head on a pillow.  

Emmett is crate trained and housebroken.

Emmet is currently in one of our wonderful Foster Homes for evaluation and lots of love. All of our dogs stay in their Foster Homes for a minimum two week evaluation period, then remain there until their Forever Home finds them.

All GRRSWF dogs have undergone an full examination by a veterinarian and any health concerns have been addressed. All dogs are current on vaccines, have been tested for heartworm and intestinal parasites, and are provided with monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventatives for the duration of their time with us.

If you are interested in learning more about this dog, please contact us at applications@grrswf.org, or you can read about our adoption process in detail and download an application from our website at http://grrswf.org/index-2.html.

PLEASE NOTE:
We serve Southwest Florida from Naples to Tampa, and sometimes slightly beyond if needed or possible. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs but live outside our usual area of operations, please us know as soon as possible; this will allow us to ascertain whether we have volunteers in your area who would be able to assist in processing your application, and may save you from completing an application that we might be unable to process. Unfortunately, much as we would like to, there are some locations that we are simply unable to cover as we do not have sufficient representation in that area to perform the required home visits prior to the adoption, or follow-up visits afterward.
