Amos

MALE | BORN FEBRUARY 2022 | MIXED BREED - MEDIUM

LOCATED IN AUCKLAND

Hi, I’m Amos. I’m an energetic and adventurous 2-year-old mixed breed boy, living with my foster family in Auckland. 

I’m affectionately known as a bit of a busybody. I love nosing about. 

And when I’m pondering something, my top lip curls up on one side.  

I’m certainly a unique bundle! 

My foster mum says I’m “a big doofus” and a “slobbery joy to have round the place.” 

It’s true. I’m a loyal, very loving boy… and I’ve already formed a strong bond with my foster family.   

And that’s a great thing. You see, I can be a little nervous meeting new people and it takes me a while to warm up to strangers.  

So, my foster mum thinks a quieter home, with some space for me to run, would suit me well.  

I’m a boy’s boy. I love nothing more than a rough and tumble with my foster dad.  

She thinks a childfree dog-experienced couple - with less daily comings and goings - would suit me best.  

I’m very much a confident social butterfly with my fellow canines – especially the little ones. 

I currently live with another dog, Roxy. We’re great friends.   

My FAVE toy is my deer antler and, I must say, I’m very good when Roxy steals it! 

My foster mum thinks I’d be fine as a solo doggy or sharing with a cruisy canine, which may help me settle into new surroundings quicker. 

I haven’t met cats yet, so she’s not sure how I’d be sharing a house with one. 

I don’t ask for much in life. A nice big walk in the morning, with my human, and the chance to rip up and play with my deer antler, pig ears and bones… and I’m a happy guy! 

My foster mum says my training’s coming along well. I’m amazing off leash and have GREAT recall too.  

I’ve really learned a great deal and been through a lot recently.  

You see, last year, I had an accident where I broke my back legs.  

I had to have a leg operation. Throughout it all, I was a brave boy and recovered well. 

I absolutely LOVE swimming, which has really helped with my healing too. 

And, fortunately, I’ve never been a dog that jumps. 

When I run now, my back legs do stick out a little.  

My foster mum says it’s just part of what makes me unique and special.  

She’ll certainly be sad when the time comes to say goodbye.  

I’ve had a tough go of it, she says, and I really deserve to find kind-hearted humans that’ll love me the rest of my days.  

So if you’re looking for a loyal loving lad, that’ll keep you smiling through your days, I hope you’ll consider welcoming ME into your life.
