Emmett Collie & Labrador Retriever Mix Springfield, MO

"It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight, rising up to the challenge of our rival... And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night, and he's watching us all with the eye... of the tiger."

Have you ever seen such tiger-like eyes on a canine? My name is Emmett and I have these piercing gold eyes. If you've ever seen Twilight, my eyes look just as gold and mesmerizing as Emmett Cullen's. My eyes aren't the only thing enticing about me! I am a loving and playful collie/lab mix that is around 2-3 years old and 70 pounds. I do great in my kennel and am potty trained!

My ideal home would have a fenced in yard and another dog or sturdy young human for me to play hard with. I get along great with the dogs in my foster home and with children too, but it's unknown if I'm good with felines or other animals. Rescue One can cat test me, if necessary. I am very praise driven and very obedient. I will catch onto tricks quickly with a little patience from my people. I like to get belly scratches and deer hop to you in excitement! After the trainers at the P4P program help me master my leash skills, I might make a good trucker companion. I might do okay in an apartment as well, as long as I get taken on adventures and still getting plenty of daily exercise. If that is you, fill out my application today!

I am a graduate of the Pups for Parole training program. I have all the basic training necessary to make a great companion. I will need a family willing to continue my training, I sure don't want to forget all that I've learned!

My adoption fee is $150 and includes my spay/neuter, vaccinations, wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip!
