About Emilie
Emilie is one of those truly special souls who seems to have been born with nothing but love in her heart. If you adore a dog with the gentlest nature, an endless supply of affection, and a heart that simply wants to be close to her humans, then Emilie could be your perfect match. Rescued from a kill shelter in Romania, this beautiful girl survived by just one day. Her story could have ended so differently, but thankfully, she has been given a second chance at the happy, love-filled life she has always deserved.
From the moment you meet Emilie, you’ll understand just how special she is. She is unbelievably gentle, incredibly affectionate, and absolutely loves a cuddle. In fact, she won’t waste any time showing you just how much love she has to give! Within the first minute of meeting you, she’ll be initiating affection, gently climbing against you and finding every possible way to get as close as she can. Whether that means leaning into you for a cuddle, curling up beside you on the sofa, or simply keeping you company throughout the day, Emilie will be happiest when she can share those little moments with her favourite people.
And if you’re worried about grooming, don’t be! Emilie has turned grooming into another opportunity for affection. She absolutely loves lying beside you while being brushed, and if you dare to stop before she’s ready, she’ll gently nudge herself closer to encourage you to carry on. It’s just the sweetest little glimpse into her personality and a reminder that, for Emilie, being loved is all about those quiet moments of closeness. She would happily turn a simple brushing session into a lovely little bonding ritual, making even the most ordinary parts of the day feel special.
Because of Emilie’s incredibly gentle and loving nature, we believe she could make a wonderful companion for a family with children. However, we think this lovely girl would be particularly suited to a retirement home, where life can move at a slower pace and she can enjoy all the comforts she deserves. Imagine gentle strolls together, peaceful afternoons curled up on the sofa, a little pampering, and a loving human close by whenever she wants a cuddle.
After coming so close to losing her life, Emilie deserves a future filled with kindness, comfort, and unconditional love. She deserves a home where her gentle soul will be treasured, where cuddles are plentiful, and where she will never have to wonder whether she belongs. In return, she promises to bring a beautiful, calming presence into your life and a whole lot of love to every single day. If you’re looking for a devoted little companion who will happily spend her days close to you, Emilie is waiting to find the person who will finally make her feel at home.
Emilie’s Ideal Home:
A retirement home or a family who enjoys a slower pace of life and would love a gentle companion by their side.
Humans who adore cuddles and are happy to have a loving shadow who wants to be close to them throughout the day.
A home where sofa snuggles, quiet companionship, and gentle strolls are part of everyday life.
Potentially a home with respectful, gentle children, as we believe her kind and affectionate nature could make her a lovely family companion.
A forever family who will treasure her gentle soul and show her, every single day, that she is safe, loved, and finally home.
