Take Emma home

Emma.jpg

Meet Emma, a sweet little dog waiting at the Roanoke Valley SPCA for a new home.

Here's what the RVSPCA Web site says about her:"Emma is a 4 year old Wire Fox Terrier. Her owner could no longer care for her and wanted her to find a loving, long-term home. Emma was in a foster home for 2 weeks until space became available at the RVSPCA. Emma is very loving and wants to be someone's constant companion. She loves to cuddle and would make a nice lap dog. She did well in foster care and is now ready for a home of her own. Emma has been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped."

The Roanoke Valley SPCA is located at 1310 Baldwin Avenue in Roanoke.

  1. I would love to have her. We have a 4 year old Austraulian terrier. I don't know if Molly & Emma would get along.

Foster homes for the holidays

The Roanoke Valley SPCA is participating in the national “Foster A Lonely Pet For the Holidays” pet fostering program.

Over 13,000 pet rescue organizations nationwide are trying to empty the kennels for Christmas, encouraging families to open their home for the holidays to an adoptable pet waiting for a forever home.

Fostered pets can be picked up between December 18-23, and can be returned to the RVSPCA between December 30-January 2.

The RVSPCA will provide all needed supplies and support to the temporary families. You can view all of the pets online at www.rvspca.org, or visit the shelter to meet them.  The goal is to have each of these pets into a home by noon on December 23.

Ann Marie Sweeney, foster coordinator for the RVSPCA, will answer questions about the program for people interested in making this Christmas a happy holiday for a pet in need.  Contact Sweeney at 344-4840, ext. 208 or e-mail asweeney@rvspca.org.
