Meet Emily-Overlooked and Waiting for Her Second Chance Emily has been sitting in the shelter since October 23, 2024, watching other dogs come and go while she's left behind. She was found as a stray, wandering alone with no one looking for her. Since then, she's had very little time outside her kennel, and it's clear she's long overdue for a home. She's overdue for love. Overdue for a family. Overdue for her adoption. Emily isn't the kind of dog who demands attention. She's quiet, gentle, and easy to miss if you're not looking closely-but she's exactly the kind of dog who deserves a second chance. She'd do best as the only pet because she likes her space and doesn't enjoy the company of other dogs or cats. But if you're looking for a dog who will be all yours, who's happy just to be near you, Emily is that dog. She's potty trained, non-destructive, and can be left alone without causing any trouble. No messes, no accidents-just a good girl waiting for someone to come home. Emily has been around kids and even lived with a 2-year-old for a little while, doing amazing with him. She's low-energy, loves to snuggle, and is perfectly content curling up beside you for hours. But when she's excited, she gets the cutest little zoomies that will make you smile no matter what kind of day you've had. She loves car rides, going on new adventures, and walks beautifully on a leash. Emily isn't asking for much. She just wants a quiet home, someone to love her, and a soft place to rest her head. She may not be the dog jumping up and down for attention at the shelter, but she's the dog who will be your loyal companion, your best friend, and your heart. Emily has a deadline by Sunday 2/9/25. If she doesn't find a home or foster by then, she'll have to return to the shelter-right back to the kennel she's been trying so hard to leave behind. Emily is currently located with a temporary foster but will have to return to Charlotte Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control by Sunday 2/9/25 if we don't find placement. She's been overlooked for far too long. If you think you could be the person to give Emily the home she's been waiting for, please comment below, message us, or email briorloff@gmail.com. She's been waiting for someone like you.
