They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply? Amelia is an almost 8-year-old Shepherd mix, weighing around 91 pounds and fully grown. This large, tall girl has a heart just as big as her stature. Amelia is both potty and house trained, making her a wonderful companion for a prepared household. Her playful spirit shines through during playgroups, where she enjoys showing off her fancy moves and especially adores the company of small to medium-sized male dogs. Amelia relishes car rides with her favorite volunteers and has a particular fondness for burgers and fluffy blankets. Kiss exchanges are non-negotiable in her book! While Amelia gives affection wholeheartedly, she is slow to trust new people, likely due to a difficult past. For this reason, she would thrive in a dog-savvy home with someone experienced in working with abused or traumatized rescue animals. Patience and willingness to conduct slow introductions through multiple meetings are essential for Amelia to feel at home. To help her feel secure, a 6-foot privacy fenced yard is best.
