Staying home is the new going out, according to our pet of the week Emmett. He’s looking for a calm home with plenty of quiet cuddles. The shelter is a stressful place for a sensitive boy like Emmett. Once out of his kennel, he wants to gallop to the front door. Once he’s outside, he likes to sit and lean his head on you. On walks, he’s easy on leash. He loves his human and takes treats gently. If you’re looking for a pal to keep you company around the house, come meet Emmett today at Fulton County Animal Services, 860 Marietta Blvd. NW in Atlanta.
