Emmett.
Emmett…the O.G. He’s our little toughie. Sweet face and a sour attitude. He’s EVERYTHING.
We had to say goodbye to the little Prince in December 2019. We adopted Emmett while we lived in Brooklyn. We were introduced to him on the sidewalk in front of Madison Square Garden at rush hour. Emmett was one of the true loves of my life. Sweet boy.
I am at heart a gentleman.
— Marlene Dietrich
