Emma's Story

Meet Emma, a sweet Shih Tzu/Poodle mix weighing about 24 pounds and estimated to be 10 years old. She's a quiet, chill little girl looking for a forever home where she can relax, cuddle, and simply enjoy life with her people.<br/>Emma is the type of dog who is happy just being near you. She loves belly rubs, enjoys lounging on the couch, and will also happily chill on the floor right beside you. When you come home, she's always there to greet you at the door, and if you talk to her, her tail immediately starts wagging. Every now and then she'll give a few sweet kisses too. She's very easy on a leash and enjoys calm walks and sniffing around outside.<br/>She also absolutely loves car rides and makes the perfect little co-pilot for trips around town or long rides for a vacation. <br/>She does bark if the other dogs bark, and she enjoys watching squirrels and cats with the other dogs in the yard. Around the house, she's mostly a laid-back couch potato who just wants a cozy place to relax and people to love.<br/>Emma does need rugs or traction on slippery floors because it can take her a moment to get her back feet underneath her on slick surfaces. Once she gets going, though, she does just fine.<br/>Emma has been through quite a bit medically and has handled it all like a champ. She previously had mammary tumor surgery that removed an entire mammary chain along with lymph nodes. She also had surgery to remove a large skin tag on her head and recently had a dental with extractions.<br/>She does have a heart murmur and takes Vetmedin twice daily to help manage it. Emma is fully vetted, medically cared for, and ready for her forever family.<br/>Emma also needs to lose quite a bit of weight, and we are already helping her work toward a healthier lifestyle.<br/>Despite everything she's been through, Emma remains a loving, gentle companion who would be perfect for someone wanting a calm, affectionate dog to share quiet days, cozy evenings, and car rides with.

Sammy's Hope Rescue's Adoption Policy
Please read before submitting an application We do require a approved application for meet and greets. Why? Because otherwise we would be meeting with people who we would not adopt to and it would use a lot of time and resources for no reason. Since I do 99.9% of the meet n greets it's my time and gas. :) Remember we do not have a facility. We are foster based. We do require a fenced yard. Why? Because dogs deserve a safe open area to play in off leash. We do not expect dogs to be left alone in the yard or to be outside dogs. I often hear that. That is not why we require a fence. We do realize this will exclude some people. It is still a requirement. Dog parks are not considered a fenced yard. They can be a very dangerous place for a pup. We also require a home check. Why? Because we want to make sure the home is a safe environment. You would be surprised what I have seen. I could care less if your home is spotless. It should be safe though. If money is a issue please address that before all other steps are taken. Adoption fees are required to keep the rescue open. We only exist because of adoption fees and donations. We are a small rescue with limited funds. Adoptions are never ever first come first serve. Applications are accepted until we get a good match. It may take 1 application for that and it may take 10. We are trying the very best we can to get forever homes not right now homes. Oftentimes people do not research breeds before applying and are not the best match. We adopt within 2 to 3 hours of Bonifay, Florida. If you have questions about a dog comments are missed so please message the page, call 850-280-3960, or email sammyshope@aol.com.
