About Emery’s Breed:
Our best guess is that Emery is a Chihuahua mixed breed. Chihuahuas are known for their big hearts, bold personalities, and deep devotion to their people. Despite their tiny size, they’re confident, expressive, and love forming strong bonds with their families. Many Chihuahuas are affectionate lap dogs who thrive on closeness and attention, yet they also have a playful, spirited side that keeps life fun.
An ideal home for a Chihuahua is one that offers gentle handling, consistent routines, and plenty of companionship. Because of their small size, they do best in environments where they’re kept safe from rough play or accidental injury, and they flourish with families who enjoy snuggling, short walks, and spending lots of time together. With love and patience, Chihuahuas become incredibly loyal, charming, and delightful little companions.
What to Love about Emery:
This tiny lovebug’s absolute favorite thing in the world is cuddling! If there’s a lap available, Emery is in it. She adores everyone she meets and becomes even more smitten when they give her pets and attention. She’s wonderful with kids and cats, and she enjoys other dogs too — though big dogs can be a little scary, so she’d do best with canine friends closer to her size.
Emery is still a puppy, so she loves to play and chew on her bones, but she’s also an easygoing little girl who settles beautifully for snuggly naps. She walks nicely on a leash and enjoys short strolls around the block with her foster mom before curling up for an afternoon cuddle session. She’s already potty trained and crate trained, and she can even be left alone without a crate or in her pen thanks to her great manners!
This sweet, gentle, affectionate pup is ready to grow up with a family of her very own.
