Emily - Rat Terrier Dog for Adoption in Mansfield, Texas

Emily came from a horrific place. She was pregnant, and lived in unimaginable filth her entire life. Her freedom ride was nothing short of a miracle.
Today, she is in a foster home, slowly learning what life can be outside of the hell she once knew.
Emily has come a long way in her recovery. She prefers smaller dogs but peacefully tolerates her larger housemates. She loves attention, doing zoomies and curling up in bed with her foster parents.
She would thrive in a quieter, adult-only home without a lot of activity or visitors. It isn’t that she dislikes children, she simply feels safest in a calm environment. She is good with cats and smaller dogs, and she absolutely loves being the center of attention.
Now, let’s help her find the forever homes they deserve. She just wants to be loved and after everything has endured, she deserves the very best.
