My story

Meet Amara! This super mom of 11 pups transferred to us from the Chula Vista Animal Care Facility. Amara is a very sweet and relaxed gal with a fun and bouncy playful side! With her pups in tow, she loves to give toys a good shake and won't say no to a good game of tug of war! Amara has made sure her pups were well cared for every step of the way, now it's time to take care of Amara! This gentle gal is ready to retire from mom life and deserves to just be a dog again! Check out Amara & pups' rescue story here: https://www.facebook.com/heartofgoldsshelter/posts/pfbid07LVqvxwreznCQSQH2FAkhJhV7bYrU6XqwVUMyvsL9vSaPQYUFQZqHZQnQzgmrU7rl Additional Note: First photo was taken with her healthy, recovered body. Second photo taken when Amara was emaciated and still lactating. Regarding COVID-19 and other contagious illnesses: Please reschedule any visits if you are sick.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Amara, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
