Meet adorable KOBE!!!

He is a gorgeous 2.5-year-old, 90 lb, neutered male Cane Corso with gold eyes. He is energetic, but extremely trainable.

KOBE is great on a leash, gentle taking treats, loves rolling in the cool grass❤️

KOBE is looking for a cat-free home with no elementary school children (15+) because of his size/momentum. He has shown himself to be dog-selective and not good with small dogs, so slow dog introductions are a must.

KOBE needs time to warm to new people, but then is an absolute love bug.

Because KOBE has been through a lot in his short life (male handler who practiced fear-based training), KOBE really needs a home with a patient handler who is familiar with the breed, their instinct to protect, and is committed to holding firm and consistent boundaries.

KOBE is fully vaccinated and neutered.

Contact Emerald Street Kennels, 208-378-0123 to meet KOBE.

SATHIRA is a 10 year old lab-pit bull mix with a lot of giddy-up in her walk. She was given up by her owner with her 3-year-old boy, BEAR.

We are still learning more about her, but she is a happy-go-lucky dog and good with other dogs.

Unfortunately, SATHIRA was recently diagnosed with Cushing's disease or hypercortisolism after a volunteer saw a pot belly.

SATHIRA will be fully-vaccinated and spayed for her forever family.

Meet SATHIRA by calling Emerald Street Kennels, Boise 208-378-0123.

He is a little unsure of new things, but warms. He is very attached to his mother, SATHIRA, who was also given up by her owner.

We are still learning more about BEAR, but he appears to be good around other dogs.

BEAR will be fully-vaccinated and neutered for his forever family.

Because of unfortunate circumstances, 3-year-old GRIZZY just lost the only family that she has known in her short life. She knew the staff at Emerald Street Kennels, so volunteers and staff are now caring for her while she looks for her forever home.

GRIZZY is good with other dogs as she was boarded and played in off-leash playgroups.

GRIZZY is good with kids older than 12. She has never been around cats.

GRIZZY is e-collar-trained and muzzle-trained.

GRIZZY likes to play fetch and frisbee and will likely need a secure yard to play in.

GRIZZY is fully vaccinated and spayed, so ready for her forever family. Her previous family is heartbroken and would like to keep in contact with GRIZZY's new family.

Contact Emerald Street Kennels, Justeen, 208- 378-0123 to set up a meet or two with GRIZZY.

ASTRO is a 1 year old, ~50-lb husky-shepherd mix who could use a few more groceries to fill out.

ASTRO has several good points...He auto-sits for treats and seems to know obedience commands like 'sit', 'down', and 'shake'. He is treat-motivated to learn more.

ASTRO walks by the doggy playgroups without reaction and has been great on side-by-side walks with other dogs. He will soon be tested in off-leash doggy playgroups. He needs some loose-leash walk training.

ASTRO will be fully-vaccinated and neutered for his forever family.

Meet ASTRO by calling Emerald Street Kennels, Boise 208-378-0123.

Meet stunning blue-eyed 3.5 years old, 48-pound, altered female named CAHIRA. She lost her family but was given shelter and care by Emerald Street Kennels staff and volunteers.

She has been good with all people and has the sweetest soul.

She is good with other dogs her size or bigger but does better with male dogs?. She walks well on leash and is also very treat motivated?. She is potty trained and isn't a chewer.

She is very smart and eager to please.

She is also very curious and of course loves the snow❄️.

We don't believe that any small dogs or cats will be in her future home?. She is also not going to be good in a home with any dominant females dogs because she likes being the 'boss'.

Almost 3-year-old LEO is a gorgeous, healthy husky that found himself homeless but was lucky to be given shelter by Emerald Street Kennels, Boise. He is now looking for a foster or forever home.

On his walks with volunteers, he does not seem reactive to dogs, but he has not done well with farm animals. He is currently going on pack runs with other dogs a few times per week.

He is curious and seems to want to investigate or play with anything that moves and some things that do not. Bees, grasshoppers, and field mice excite him, but so did a plastic bottle and a paper cup!

LEO understands 'come here' when spoken in a friendly, gentle manner and expects to be petted afterward.

LEO has a gentle mouth when taking treats. When we stopped to sit on the grass, he stayed very close to the handler. He is a kisser if you let him. He will rest his head on your lap too. Leo showed very little interest in a ball until a treat was stuck inside of it. It took him about two minutes on two different attempts to get the treat out of the ball.

He would be a good dog for an adult-only family. With dogs in the home, LEO is likely dog-selective. He may not know how to share his resources. A home without other dogs is best for LEO at this time.

Meet LEO by calling Emerald Street Kennels, Boise 208-378-0123 or go visit during open hours.
