Meet Amara, a 5-year-old large mixed-breed dog with a heart as big as her paws! Amara can be a little shy around new people, but with some patience (and plenty of treats!), she quickly blossoms into a loving cuddle bug. She’s lived with children before and may do well with older kids who can respect her size and space.
Amara is best suited to a home without cats or small animals due to her high prey drive. She has lived peacefully with some dogs but struggles with resource guarding her food, a behavior rooted in her time as a stray. Her adopters should be confident in managing this with positive reinforcement and redirection.
Amara is a sweet and loyal companion who thrives in a patient, understanding home. If you’re ready to give this gentle giant the love and structure she deserves, she’ll repay you with endless snuggles and unwavering devotion. Could she be the perfect fit for your family?
A little bit about Amara:
– History of living with children. Potential for home with children. All interactions should be carefully supervised by an adult.
– No cats or small animals in home required due to high prey drive and catch history
– History of living with other dogs. History of resource guarding with another dog that would need to be carefully managed in a home. May be dog selective.
