Amora

Amora is a sweet, wiggly girl who has truly blossomed during her time with us, and has continuously shown how resilient and amazing she is. She’s typically a mellow gal who loves gentle pets, cozy beds, soft snuggles, and being close to her people—but every now and then she gets a sparkle in her eye and breaks into playful zoomies or a fun game with her favorite toys! Amora is a big fan of balls, squeaky toys, enrichment activities, and she especially enjoys a good butt scratch or neck rub. She also loves car rides and, unlike many dogs, is a huge fan of bath time. While she enjoys relaxing and lounging, regular exercise and positive outlets for her energy will help keep her happy and balanced. Amora is incredibly sweet and enjoys spending time with people, though she can be shy at first with new faces and may take a little extra time warming up to men. Once she feels comfortable and finds her person, she becomes deeply attached and loves staying close by. She can also become sensitive if she thinks she is in trouble, so she’ll thrive with a gentle, patient adopter who helps continue building her confidence. She walks beautifully on leash most of the time, with the occasional joyful burst of excitement when the mood strikes. Amora does very well in a home environment. She appears potty trained, did great asking to go outside when needed, and reportedly had no accidents when left alone for 4–8 hours. She also does not destroy household items when left to her own devices, which is always a bonus! While Amora has shown friendly behavior in most dog introductions, she was returned because she played too rough with the other dog in the home and her family did not have the experience to ensure a safe environment for all animals. She does enjoy her own space and routine too. Her play style was also overwhelming to the cats in the home and Amora proved to be interested in chasing kitties if given the chance. Amora has been such a joy to get to know, and we know the right family is going to fall in love with her sweet heart, silly wiggles, and loving personality just like we have.
