Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Hello, future friend! I’m Emerald, and I’m here to add a splash of sparkle and joy to your life. I might be laid back, but don’t let that fool you—I’m always up for a good play session and enjoy making new dog friends. I’ve had some great encounters with other dogs here at the shelter, so I’d love to have a doggy date with any resident pups to see if we click.
When I’m not busy making new friends or exploring new activities, you’ll find me basking in the sheer delight of butt scratches. That’s right—give me a good scritch, and you’ll see me dance with happiness! It’s my absolute favorite thing, and I promise it will bring a smile to your face.
If you’re looking for a friendly, easygoing companion who’s also a pro at spreading joy, I’m ready to find my forever home with you. Let’s meet and see if we’re a perfect match!

More about this shelter
The Animal Defense League was established in 1934 by a group of individuals, “for the prevention of cruelty to animals; to promote kind and humane treatment of animals; and to aid and assist the enforcement of laws enacted for the prevention of animal cruelty.”
In 1961, ADL moved to its present location in the easily accessible northeast part of San Antonio. Its campus encompasses more than 12 acres and includes a two-acre pet park. On the property is an Adoption Center with a small retail store, and a separate 5,000 square-foot Clinic which houses our veterinary hospital that provides onsite spay/neuter surgery, surgery for injured and ill animals, and ongoing medical care for all ADL resident animals.
