Story
Meet Cream Delight (aka: Emmy Lou)!
She is guessed to be a 7 yr old Maltese/Yorkie mix, who is only around 6.5 bs. She was recently rescued from a hoarder/backyard breeder in OK, along with a few other lucky pups! She is a gentle soul with a mellow disposition. Her sweet nature shines through her shyness, making her a delightful companion.
This cute, furry little girl is a bit shy at first, but is learning how good it is to be loved on by humans. She came from a place with lots and lots of dogs so is good with dogs. She needs a loving home to show her how good life can be as a beloved family member. If you have a warm lap and love to give, she is the right dog for you! She will need her safe place kennel and a small play yard around the kennel to begin with while you spend time in her safe area helping her to get used to you and her new surroundings. She will also need a small fenced yard or being slowing walked in the yard on a leash until she gains confidence with you and her new life.
Emmy Lou is waiting patiently to find her FurEver Family!! Precious gentle-soul is currently being fostered with one of our dog trainers that specializes and rehabilitates timid, shy, scared or unsocialized dogs. She is absolutely adorable and her eyes will melt your heart! Her foster mom thinks she would do better in a quiet home with adults or older children to work with her. Another confident dog could be helpful as she loves other dogs, but not necessary if the adopter can help her continue on her confidence journey. Her foster mom has an amazing rehabilitation protocol to help these scared dogs and is working with her on potty training, socializing with dogs and humans, kennel training, doggie door training and if time permits, leash and car training. She also has an amazing group of volunteers that meet twice a week to help socialize all the scared foster dogs in her care. There are lots of other dogs at her foster mom's house so we know she is dog friendly. Her foster doesn't have any cats but thinks she would be fine with them if introduced slowly and properly. She will need an adopter, who will give her love and patience. Please consider this adorable dog as a part of your family. She deserves all the kindness and will give you a lifetime of affection. The shy dogs become the most loyal dogs, who adore their humans. Her foster mom is located in Fort Collins Colorado and wants to find a patient adopter, who is willing to do a minimum of one paid training session with her. This training session is NOT basic obedience, but instead, is designed for rescue dogs and teaches the adopter how to work to build the dogs confidence and overcome any trauma the dog may have experienced. This training will help the family and this sweet dog adjust to their new life together much quicker than trying to do it on your own. She provides a discount on training to her adopters. The dogs that she fosters truly need an adopter to be their hero and offer them lots of time, patience, love and a safe environment that they can slow grow in confidence.
