Amos

My story

AMOS is looking for a forever home down south🖤 Amos needs a dog-savvy and patient family. He is learning to trust all over again! We aren’t sure about his history, but he is learning that the rest of his life will be full of love and comfort. Amos is an approximately 2-3 year old boxer/lab mix that is about 65 lbs. He is incredibly sweet and loves being loved on, and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body. His trust is getting better with his foster family, but still is uncomfortable around strangers. We know with the lots of love and affection, he will trust his forever family fully! 🏡 Amos came to his foster family badly injured and still has big scars. We believe that he was tethered by a back leg and burned. He has regrown the hair in his back but not his hip and back leg but it just shows his resilience through what he’s experienced. He has the best underbite, too! 🐶 Amos is great with other dogs and cats. He would be great with kids as long as the family understands it will take a while for him to adjust. His foster mom says he is very clumsy though, so may accidentally step on a young kid. 😅 He loves to play with other dogs and gets confidence from them so another young playful dog is a must. He also loves to play with people & soft plush toys 🧸 He does surprisingly well in the car and loves walks even though they scare him a little bit but he’s gaining confidence daily! He is very smart and has good manners, and is Crate trained and potty trained. If you are patient and looking for a best friend for life, please apply for Amos!
