About Emma
Emma is an affectionate, intelligent, curious, sweet, fun, cuddly puppy ready to find her forever home.
She was found by children at a school when she was tiny and went into the care of the famous dog lady of Yuendumu, in a very remote part of the NT with her brother Eduardo.

She has now come to Sydney to find her forever home.
We estimate she is about 4 mths old and will eventually weigh approx 15-20kg. We can't give any more idea of her final size. She’s a bit smaller than her brother Eduardo.
Emma is a little reserved when meeting new people and likes to approach at her own pace. She is a sweetie and loves playing with her pal Eduardo but he can be bossy with her.
She will need a quieter home or someone more experienced with gentle dogs.
Given enough encouragement her confidence will build and her true nature will shine through.
She has had experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes. She also lived with a tiny orange kitten when she was a very little. She has not really been tested with older cats or other pocket pets.
All Camp dogs are such a mix of breeds, each one being unique. Don’t bother asking what breed we think she is because we don't know. You'll be able to play the guess what breed my camp dog is game, for the rest of her life.
We do rehome dogs to apartments.
Little Emma loves food so a treat and praised based training method should be easy for her.
She will need to go to puppy classes and any further training will help her become the best dog she can be.
She comes micro chipped, vaccinated, desexed, parasite treated and ready to go!
Emma flew from Eduardo and Emily (adopted) from Alice Springs to Sydney. She is available to meet now as she is in foster care in Kingsford near the Uni of NSW.
PLEASE NOTE
Emma is in excellent health. However, as she has come from an area of Australia where there have been cases of Ehrlichiosis,( a brown tick borne disease introduced to Australia in 2020), Emma and her Eduardo are receiving a precautionary course of antibiotics

1. Have you had a dog before is so, when, size, and age? (not if you have looked after someone else's dog)

3 Most dogs, puppies, and young cannot be left alone for long hrs e.g more than 4hrs at a time. How will you deal with this issue?
4 If you want a puppy how will you deal with the work involved i.e. toilet training, chewing, mouthing - those sharp teeth - jumping up, going to puppy classes?
5. How will you cope with all these issues if you have children (how old are your children?)?
6. A dog is not just for the children so why do the parents want the puppy and how will you provide the constant supervision and boundaries needed?
7 Have you considered that a dog or a puppy cannot immediately be taken to a dog park or cafe and need to slowly understand all the new sights, sounds, people, dogs, etc of their new environment?

15 If you are offered a meet and greet and it is felt by all that the dog or pup is a good fit for your family, we expect you to be ready to take the dog home/adopt at the time.
From what date do you want to adopt?
We cannot hold dogs as space in foster care is needed for other dogs.
Thank you
