How-dee!  My name is Emmy Lou (no relation to the famous singer).  I'm a 5-year-old sweet lovin' Basset gal whose
clothes have gotten a little bit baggy.  I arrived here at GABR in June and am SO grateful to be here.  It has been a
pretty rough year for me.  It is not in my nature to speak unkindly about anyone, but I've been missing a lot of the
basic things a hound needs to be happy like love and playtime and walks.  My eyes may look sad, but I never am.  
My tail is always waggin' and I have a big smile and a hearty howl when you come home.  Just watch me strut!  I love
everyone I meet: babies, grown-ups and everyone in between.  I like other dogs and never bother with cats or other
critters.  I like power naps and nuzzling your ears.  I've been relearning things like how to potty outside (95% there)  
and how to walk better on a leash.   My foster family has been ever so patient, and I have made tremendous strides!
  I sleep well in either my dog crate or dog bed.  I can use the dog door and I've mastered going up and down flights
of stairs.  I love to play with plush squeakie toys and tussle with my basset buddy Charlotte.  I can be very silly and
have been known to steal your socks so I can leap and throw them about....now that's what I call FUN!  I am not food
aggressive, and will eat whatever  you give me.  I do have some skin allergies, so my budget would include higher
quality food, some medication and supplements and more frequent baths.  I have the biggest heart overflowing with
love, long ears and wet basset kisses to give to a very special someone.  What are you waiting for???  I'm thinking
about you every day; make my secret dream come true.  Just fill out an
adoption application and I may be all yours.
