AMARA is one of a litter of 8, to their mother River. The family was Death Row listed at a rural shelter.

TEMPERAMENT/BEHAVIOR
Amara is such an easy-going pup who can’t wait to find her forever family! She loves her toys, loves to fetch the ball, chases her foster brothers around the yard, loves to play in the pool and just enjoys being outside hanging out with her foster family. She loves food and I mean really LOVES her food, which helps make training a cinch!

TRAINING
Her potty training is going very well with no accidents in the house or her kennel and she runs to the door to let you know it’s time for her to go out. She sleeps through the night in her kennel, about 8 hours. This super smart girl understands what "NO " means and can be easily redirected. She walks just ok on the leash so that's an area that is a work in progress. She knows how to Sit and Shake and is working on Down. She will "kennel up " at mealtime and wait there for her food.

PEOPLE
Amara is a very social girl! She goes to work with her foster mom and approaches everyone at th office for attention. She accepts all the pets and gives lots of kisses

OTHER ANIMALS
She has acclimated well to foster brothers and loves to play. She approaches other dogs willingly and responds to the social cues well.

Good with Dogs, Good with Kids

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

1. We're picky about our adopters. 
2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
   
3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
   
5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
   
6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
