About Emma:

Emma is a medium-sized, female Huntaway, aged 4 years old.

Description:

Emma is a 4yo spayed Huntaway who needs to go and run some hills and chase some sheep and cattle, because that’s what she was bred to do.
Emma is a very athletic, intelligent, eager to please and a gentle girl. Who is affectionate, loves a pat and has her own little personality.
She also has a very strong stock and work drive, and is currently not getting the work that she used to and she’s very bored.

In the last 2 years with the current owners she’s been an awesome sheep yard dog, that will do a whole day in the yards easily, and some. With some extra training she would easily get some distance on her.
She’s the kind of dog that the more work she gets, the better she gets.
However, Emma had an unpleasant start in life and is wary of strangers. She is a combination of being incredibly soft and yet has a strong stock/work drive, so needs some boundaries.
She needs someone who is firm, but kind that she can bond with. She responds best to encouragement, and if you get too grumpy, she can sulk.
As you can understand, Emma chooses the people she interacts with, so the new owner would need to come meet her and see what Emma thinks of you.
She seems to respond best with females, so if one of you female farmers/shepherds out there are interested and can offer Emma a great working home, then you might just get an awesome huntaway!
A trial period would be essential, to male sure the new owner and Emma are both happy.
