About Amma

Amma is located in Texas and currently resides in a foster home in Houston. This sweet 3-year-old spayed female American Staffordshire Terrier mix weighs 57 pounds. She has a gentle spirit, gradually learning to embrace the joys of a loving home. While she may be timid at first, she's discovering how wonderful belly rubs and affection can be, with the help of her patient foster family. Despite her shy nature, Amma has a laid-back personality. You might find her happily chewing on her favorite toys or enjoying quiet moments, even having fun with a good case of backyard zoomies. She is well-mannered around other dogs, happily coexisting and letting them lead playtime. Amma would thrive in a quieter home where her low exercise needs can be met. She enjoys lounging on the couch and, to everyone’s delight, often flops over on her back, legs in the air — it’s a scene that’s hard to resist. Fully house-trained, Amma is also comfortable using a crate, where she can retreat whenever she needs some quiet time. She shares food peacefully and has displayed no resource guarding tendencies. However, she's still learning to trust people and feels more secure in her crate when strangers are around. With some encouragement, she’s starting to walk on a leash and adapt to car rides. Amma would do best with someone who can appreciate her independent spirit and is willing to invest time in building trust. She's also fine with dogs of different sizes and shows no concern for outdoor cats. A home without stressful situations will help her grow into the loving companion she can be. This sweet girl needs someone patient who recognizes that relationships take time. If you can provide an understanding environment and are excited to watch her blossom, Amma could be the perfect fit for you. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
