About Emily’s Breed Mix:
Lab/Shepherd mixes combine two of the most loyal, intelligent, and family-friendly breeds. Labs bring friendliness, playfulness, and a love of people, while Shepherds add focus, devotion, and a quick learning mind. Together, this mix creates a dog that is affectionate, eager to learn, and great with active families. They thrive on structure, exercise, and love—making them amazing companions and forever friends.
Emily’s Story & Personality:
Emily may be young, but she’s already showing what a well-rounded little pup she’s going to be. She’s doing wonderfully with potty training, is learning basic commands like “sit,” “stay,” and “down,” and she’s always up for a tasty banana treat as a reward. Emily takes the lead when playing outside with her siblings but is otherwise a calm and quiet girl who’s just as happy sunbathing as she is chasing toys. She’s not much of a barker, letting the noisier pups take over, and prefers to snuggle up with her humans when the day winds down. Her sweet personality and playful side make her an ideal companion for anyone looking to raise a gentle, loving pup into a well-mannered adult dog.
Emily’s Perfect Home:
A home with a fenced yard or outdoor space for sunbathing and play
A family ready to continue her puppy training with positive reinforcement
Dog companions welcome – she loves to play!
A home where snuggling on the couch is encouraged
Someone who appreciates a smart, gentle, and affectionate puppy
