Emory 05-234 [1]

8/17/05: Emory arrived here in Oxford, Iowa tonight. He has made himself right at home! He is a beautiful fellow and loves to play. He spent the evening chasing his Frisbee and Kong and then got lucky and found a tennis ball in the yard. When Emory arrived he was looking very much the "Golden in charge" with his head out the window. It is obvious that Emory has come from a very loving home, as he is just the sweetest guy. He was happy being close and even sat to be brushed for quite awhile. He is UTD on vaccinations and is in excellent health. AS you can see from the photos, Emory is a beautiful red boy. He is quite strong and not really happy on a leash. I think with some work, he will be more agreeable to the leash.

His former owner reported that Emory was quite the thief in their neighborhood. He would bring home unopened bags of dog treats and toys. Very clever, I thought!

From what I have seen tonight, I think Emory would be happiest where he has plenty of space to run. I think he will be great fun and will make a wonderful family member.
